Of course, a country that can shoot down a satellite can probably already launch a nuke, if they have one. And they likely have a bunch of stuff in space as well. There are a few counterexamples, but they wouldn't be, for instance, Russia or China or the US. They'd be mad to do that over a power delivery system that they can utilize or hack.
