Yes, press and hold the power button, for up to 30 seconds, or until the "N" logo appears on the screen.

If it does not, suggestions are that the battery is dead or not charging because the power cord itself is broken or frayed inside the cable and you will need to replace with either a B&N cable or a Micro USB cable.

It could also be the wall charger unit is no longer functioning, and this must be replaced.

I have so far replaced one wall charger and three USB cables, so this is a unnecessary common event with Nook

Wont turn on

Reboot by holding power button and pressing start button. Check to make sure Nook is charging. Cord that plugs into Nook may be loose in port. Try wiggling and pressing power button at same time.

My nook hd won't turn on. I hear sounds of nook attempting to work but no visible results

Sometimes just leaving the unit plugged in over night (or several nights) helps with starting up problems.
