Hi wasif,

Unfortunatly that's almost impossible. Every mote's timer I've seen so
far created it's timer on a 32768 Hz crystal. You can get us accuracy
using the main clock (usually 4-8-16MHz), but the main clock is
usually much more innacurate (especially if it's an RC oscillator),
but it's usually enough for short measurements.
