Even if you could do it you will save little, you will only reheat whatever heat it needs to getwarm again, to realy save get a gas tankless water heater like Rinnai, Takagi or Bosch.

The current is generated by a difference in temperature. A difference that won't be there when the pilot has been off and needs to be relighted. You need to hold the button down until the end of the thermocouple (the one in the flame) warms up enough for it to generate enough current.
