I don't know of anything in the homenet routers that require a peering level of synchronization. And I think it would be dangerous to suggest it's achievable. I can easily envision a multihomed network, where each CE router gets time from its ISP, and doesn't care what other devices in the home network do (or optionally both try to propagate their time). And then there are all the hosts doing their own thing. The most common use for NTP time that I know of is in logs. To get a reasonable sense of when something happened. So I'd suggest to keep it simple and not try for or expect synchronization.
