Maybe, but it would need to be treated as a separate system. I turned Amber Alerts off after being blasted awake at 2am over a missing child five hours away from me. The chances of me ever being able to help in a missing persons case is already incredibly slim. It would be impossible at 2am unless the kidnapper hides under my bed.
The current system is used in a suboptimal way, at least by authorities in my state.

Yeah I have Amber alerts turned off. I guess other alerts are still on on my iPhone which is probably as close to a government alerting system as you're going to get.
