No, that's not how time servers work. You set your computer up to
synchronize with a time server, and periodically a daemon contacts the
server to sync. Synchronizing once an hour should be sufficient in most
cases. You can't go to a central place to get a timestamp because you have
no idea how long the round trip is going to take, and as you point out that
would be pretty high overhead anyway.
