Yes, a "routine' ejection is a planned one... like with the various ejection test-bed aircraft designed for ejections to be performed in-flight with the aircraft flown to a safe landing by either a pilot in another cockpit or by remote control.

Another example would be if the pilot decided to deliberately crash a properly functioning aircraft for a specific reason, and did not wish to go with it, so he pre-plans when and where he will eject.
