Not likely.

There was a time when there were clocks that got data from WWV, but
they tended to be expensive and were never a mass market item.

The recent wave of such clocks use WWVH at 60KHz, and of course
they'd have a built in antenna. But these are far more common
than the old clocks that used WWV.

I see there is at least one other person who "knows" the facts on here.

The last clocks that updated via shortwave, ie: 2.5, 5.0, 10.0,15.0 or
20.0 mhz were built years ago. Heathkit made one available.
