When I reboot the GS108PE will it depower all POE ports and then repower them when it comes up, giving a power cycle to all ports?

Yes. In fact this is the standard on most PoE switches.
Few/recent sophisticated Netgear PoE switch models introduced an "Uninterrupted PoE" feature which can be enabled if required: Keep PoE running even when rebooting the switch Software reset or reboot after firmware upgrade will not force PoE PD devices to power recycle. Factory default will still reset the PoE controller and pause PoE output while rebooting.
