Yes there is an alternative way but you need to have knowledge in electronics repair, because you will need to open your phone and make a jumper for your ON/OFF Switch. But if you don`t know anything about this, don`t try to do so because you might just damage your phone as well. Just bring it to the nearest cell phone repair shop or a Nokia center to fix it for you.

Plug your phone into your computer, bring up iTunes, and and click on the picture of your phone and click start backup.

Try connecting it to a charger, and restarting it. If that fails, then REtake out the battery and turn it on.
