Nope.
The Alpha Lanterns are seasoned Corpsmen who have been fused with their Power Rings and Batteries. Alpha Lanterns More...

Yes and there are only a few of them/
There are a few now, only the best are chosen and they have more power and never have to recharge.
To become a member of the Alpha Lanterns was considered the highest honor that the Guardians could bestow. They represented the very best elements of every military unit the Guardians ever created. They possessed the willpower and thought process of a Green Lantern, while also harboring the logistical efficiency of a Manhunter. Service in the Alpha Lantern Corps required great sacrifice however. To serve as an Alpha Lantern, an officer was required to abandon all aspects of their prior life, and commit themselves fully to the Corps. They were also required to undergo cosmetic surgery, which enabled them to interface with their corresponding power batteries with greater efficiency. A psychic link was established connecting an Alpha's mind with the Book of Oa, while their bodies tapped directly into the Central Power Battery. Because of this, an Alpha Lantern never needed to recharge their ring.
After the transformation, an Alpha Lantern would receive an additional power ring and their power battery is surgically implanted into their body so they need never recharge it.

My thoughts were can they depower every single one of the corps before the other 7200 Lanterns figure out how to shut them down?
I mean thats like almost a thousand lanterns per Alpha. And some of those lanterns still have powers other than their rings. How they gonna do all that before they're just over run? 😕

Oh the ones that actually have names. Alpha Corp should stomp via shutting down about a dozen rings. Anyone that hose other powers besides the ring would be taken care of handily by the supposed "cream of the crop" Oa's military force.
With the exception of Sodam Yat + Ion ... I have no proof of this but I gonna guess that they can't shut down the power of Ion. Would be shocked if they were that strong.
Sodam could solo only because I am assuming he can't be shut down and all the others could be.
