I think this has been asked before, so you may want to try a search next time. However:
According to the definitions in the manual:
<g02>

The AUTONOMOUS PERIOD ends when the ARENA timer displays zero seconds. The MATCH ends if all TOWERS are TRIGGERED or when the ARENA timer displays zero seconds, whichever comes first.

and
<g62>
Quote:
|
The AUTONOMOUS SCORE is tabulated at the conclusion of the AUTONOMOUS PERIOD; all other scores are tabulated at the conclusion of the MATCH.

(emphasis mine)
And the end of the MATCH is when the arena timer is 0, so no, they need to finish in the game time, not the following 10 seconds.
