Very, very difficult, unless the host relies on a single timesource. Best and common practice is to use 3-4 sources from different organizations in the ISC pool. It also wouldn't surprise me if most implementations of ntpd would have further safeguards about going 40 years back in time; at the very least the skew factor would make the clock change take a longgggg time to happen.

There are much easier attack vectors.
