Not that I know of, but it would be a good feature to add to
attrd_updater and/or crm_attribute.

You can probably hack it with a dampening value of a few seconds. If
your rule checks for a particular value of the attribute, set all the
nodes to a different value first, which will write that value and start
the dampening timer. Then set all the attributes to the desired value,
and they will get written out together when the timer expires.
