Yes, there are extensions and protocols that enable Wake-on-WLAN (WoWLAN), allowing devices to be woken up over wireless networks. WoWLAN functions similarly to traditional Wake-on-LAN but uses specific wireless standards to send a magic packet to a device in a low-power state. Support for WoWLAN depends on both the device's hardware and the wireless network's configuration. It is essential to enable WoWLAN settings in the device's BiOS and operating system for it to function properly.
