Can you shift the gears in automatic transmission cars even when the car is not running?

You can move the lever. But without pressure from the transmission fluid pump run by the engine, the only thing that will happen is the park latch locking and unlocking the drive shaft. Incidentally, this is why you don't stop the engine when trying to stop without brakes. Without pressure from the pump, the transmission shifts into neutral, no matter where the gearshift lever is. Instead shift down one gear at a time, letting engine braking slow the car. Then turn uphill and shift into park when the car comes to rest.
