It would depend on who granted the uncle the power of attorney. If the grandmother granted the PoA, she can revoke it at any time. If the PoA was granted by a court, no she cannot.

If your grandmother may have alzheimers is she liable if she enters a contract?
Your grandmother may have to provide expert testimony and may need an official diagnosis. It may be helpful for you to arrange a consultation with an attorney if a large amount of money is involved.
How does the law work when a grandmother leaves her estate to a relative not of decendant and then later a grandchild of her decendant is found?
A person can leave their property to whomever they wish by their will. A grandmother is not obligated to leave her property to a grandchild. She can leave it to a friend, neighbor or church if that's what she decides. If you have a serious concern you should seek the advice of an attorney who specializes in probate law in your jurisdiction who can review the situation and explain the controlling law.

The two things are not related to each other. Your uncle represents your grandmother only as long as she is alive, because a power of attorney expires on the death of the grantor. At that point the executor of the estate distributes the property according to the will.
