Not while turned off, generally. Screen off, sure.

Edit: apparently at least some do

There is no such thing as "off" on modern Smartphones. Even if you power it down things like the baseband prozessor and bluetooth still stay active most of the time.

If the battery is integrated into device there ist no real way to completely shut this things down.
