A: 

Not sure what you want, but anything you can do with cron can be done via TaskQueues in GAE, so read this http://code.google.com/appengine/docs/python/taskqueue/

App Engine applications can perform background processing by inserting tasks (modeled as web hooks) into a queue. App Engine will detect the presence of new, ready-to-execute tasks and automatically dispatch them for execution, subject to scheduling criteria.

Hard to fathom what you want (your English is very hard to parse), but anyway, besides Task Queues which are much more flexible and powerful (and may be harder to use for simple jobs that cron functionality covers perfectly), you can use cron to schedule App Engine tasks in Python by following the instructions here.
