Is there a way to set gpodder to only pull downloads during a specific window of time?

Not directly, but you can do that: Set it to never download new episodes when new episodes are found, then make sure that you only mark these episodes as new that you really want to download.

Then (with gPodder not running) you can use cron or some other scheduler to start the command line version of gPodder (called 'gpo' in three-letter command tradition) in download mode using "gpo download". If you want to update the feeds in addition to downloading (but that will download _any_ episode that is found as new during the update) use "gpo update" followed by a "gpo download".
