Yes. How you do this depends on what platform you're on, but generally
your goal is to get an NTP (network time protocol) client going.

Is it just my system - middle node of someone - hidden service ?

In general, the complete connection between client and hidden service

third being the rendezvous point and the other 3 were picked by the
hidden service.
