If you are not the currently active application in Windows Phone your application is being tombstoned, which means that some of your state is saved and your application is halted (e.g. there is no code running for your application anymore).
Therefor you can not create code that allows your application to do anything at a specific time, without using push notification.
Even with push notification your options are very limited. It realy depends on what you want to happen when a notification arives.
