Some Linux Distributions have such a feature. Debian is not one of them.
Actually, yes it is, you just need to install the user space tools.[1]
The facility is called "kexec" (named after the system call to 'EXECute
a new Kernel', I suspect). Install the "kexec-tools" package and, if I'm
reading that page correctly, the "reboot" command will be replaced by a
kexec call (see the linked page, though, for precautions about your
first reboot).
