Not exactly. shutdown -r does a change to runlevel 6. The fact that the
system reboots cold instead of warm is controlled by the kernel.
I think reboot=warm as a kernel option will make this work.
Changing runlevels is as close as you usually need to come to a reboot
under Unix; by going to runlevel 1 and back to 3, you will restart almost
all of your processes (except kerneld, the stubborn one :) ).

telinit is the command you need. Or just do init. For example
init 1
switches to runlevel 1 (single user mode).
