Yes, there is. In SmartOS we attempt to talk to the qemu monitor to drop an ACPI halt and then wait for that to complete or timeout and then drop the kill. This requires that the guest understand the ACPI events and for GNU/Linux VMs that usually refers to the acpi daemon package being installed and active.
