No, Steam must be running.

What about sleep mode?

Sleep mode suspends all non-essential running programs. <this means steam and your game would not be running>

I don't think so. In fact I'm pretty sure that it's not possible. If you computer is asleep your CPU and other components are pretty much so to say sleeping and they are not able to run any background applications. So that would be a no.
