There is no "formal" way to enable debugs right after reload, but next
to the EEM solution, you could add the below lines to your
startup-config (via "copy <remote-location> startup-config") to achieve
the same, but we can't be sure that this will necessarily catch all
debugs right from the start. 

[...]
! enable Radius accounting right after startup config is parsed
privilege exec level 1 debug radius
!
do debug radius
!
[...]

Guess it really depends on what you need to do.. Which problem are you
trying to solve?
