Question:
Is it possible to enable cron for specific users using DirectAuthorize (DZ)

Answer:
On the Centrify DirectControl Console under DirectAuthorize you can actually create and add 'crond' from the list of PAM applications (see screenshot below). After this, run the command dzinfo on the Centrify server to confirm if cron is one of the pam-allowed applications.
