yes, you can achieve using below code.

new Handler().postDelayed(new Runnable() {
            @Override
            public void run() {
                // call function
            }
        },1 * 60 * 1000);

Use the new WorkManager library from Android JetPack. You will need to:

Create Worker by extending androidx.work.Worker which will read data from firebase database.
Create a OneTimeWorkRequest with an initial delay of two seconds and launch your worker.

You can also schedule Work periodically. Refer to WorkManager documentation.

Show Process dialog until you got response from Firebase Listener.

or

You should use Progress Dialog.

Use Handler rather than Thread.sleep().
