What i need to know is is it possible to simply have the spacewalk server receive all updates from rhn and apply them to a channel and have all machines subscribed to that channel report that they are out of date and simply apply those updates when i ask ?

Yes, you can.
You can write your own script around rhnpush.
You can use:

And of course in RHN Satellite you have tool satellite-sync, which do this syncing for you. And if you choose RHN Satellite you will get support and you will support develop of Spacewalk as well.

I am pretty sure i can do this with satellite but i presume its also possible with spacewalk although scheduling jobs such as reboots etc seems to not work for me.

They are disabled by default. Check:
  man rhn-actions-control
