As far as I can tell ntp handles this situation just fine. When ntpd starts up and cannot resolve the servers it logs ntpd[...]: Deferring DNS for 0.debian.pool.ntp.org 1 ntpd_initres[...]: host name not found: 0.debian.pool.ntp.org as soon as DNS and/or network connectivity is available again (a couple of minutes later) it logs ntpd_initres[...]: DNS 0.debian.pool.ntp.org -> IP and starts using this server.
