It's hard to see how a train arriving in Cork before 9:00 wouldn't be viable. I'm sure there are a lot of people driving who would switch if there was a viable alternative.
There would presumably have to be an extra train in the opposite direction to balance, and I have to say the last train to Dublin at 20:25 is very early, and a 21:00 or 21:25 would also be popular, especially in the summer.
