It can. And that seems to be the point with which you have difficulty.
There is no difficulty. Power is a rate measurement that requires work to be done to derive useful meaning. Work requires time. It's implied even though you may observe it in an instant, it implies the passing of time to give it contextual meaning. Energy however is ever present and instantaneous when observed and even when not observed. Energy is more fundamental than power.
