My ISP doesn't measure bandwidth between 2am and 8am so I'd like to set
up large downloads to occur after 2am. Can I configure kget to do
this?

I don't know if KGet is the thing you want if you want to schedule downloads.
But this is what you could do:
1. Add all transfers to the KGet list, make sure you're in Offline Mode.
2. Run a (daily) cron job executing
dcop KGet-Interface setOfflineMode false
to disable offline mode and it starts downloading.
At 8 am you could run
dcop KGet-Interface setOfflineMode true
to stop downloading.
But maybe wget is more suited for this purpose, since it's a command line tool
and easier accessible from a cron job.
Kind regards,
