Some alien powers may be used in any phase of the turn. They are generally triggered by an event not tied to a specific phase. For example, the Zombie's power takes effect whenever it loses ships to the Warp, which can happen in a number of ways.
6 of the 50 alien powers in the FFG base game may be used during any phase. A full list can be found here.
