From `man launchd.plist`:
     RunAtLoad <boolean>
     This optional key is used to control whether your job is launched once at
     the time the job is loaded. The default is false.

Typically, as long as a launchd.plist doesn't have disabled set to true it will be run. You'd have to use one of the more advanced settings (watchpath, calendarinterval, etc) to get different behavior than simply on/off.
