Rus, yes: there's a single electric motor (as opposed to vacuum, as used in say, a Lotus Elan or certain domestic muscle cars) mounted on the right side of the engine bay, then the bell crank/shaft.

I have not tried operating them under power - the only system I've powered-up is the windows - but on top of the electric motor there's a big thumbwheel to actuate them manually; you'd appreciate the pleasing action/feel. Like so much else on these cars, the headlight mechanism is heavy-duty, and heavy-weight, clearly designed BEFORE the Toyota Production System consultants retained by Wendelin Wiedeking showed up.
