Yes, this is likely an expression used for the purpose of this video. The "to-bed" alarm mentioned by the speaker here is a going-to-bed alarm, or an alarm that we set for when it's time to go to sleep. However, if you provide context, you can use this expression in normal conversation as well. Ex: I set both wake-up and to-bed alarms. Ex: My wake-up alarm is for 7 AM, and my go-to-bed alarm is for 10 PM. Note that the above two sentences give context ("wake-up alarm"), so "to-bed" alarm can be used also.
