Is there a way to get alerts when routers or switches go down on your network or any endpoint?

Probably.  Of course, the device must be sending data to Splunk first.  All that is needed is a search that looks for data received in the last hour, but not in the last n minutes.  It could look something like this

| tstats count where index=* earliest=-70m latest=-10m NOT
[ | tstats count where index=* earliest=-10m latest=now by host 
| fields host | format ] by host
| table host

The TrackMe app (https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/4621) can help with this, also.
