The only way to do that is to fake the time, something like this:

# Normal timed reminder
REM ... AT 16:00 +30 MSG Something's happening at 16:00

# Nagging reminder
REM ... AT 23:30 +420 *30 MSG Hey! Something happened at 16:00

The first one will trigger at 15:30 and 16:00.  The second will
trigger from 16:30 all the way through to 23:30 until you suppress
it (if you're using tkremind).

Regards,

David.
