Not usually. If you are trying to make a claim from the stolen car's owner, you likely won't get coverage. Most liability policies have an exclusion for 'intentional acts' or claims arising out of the criminal use of a vehicle, which would include if the car was stolen.

But if you have uninsured motorists coverage (many states require it), then you'll be covered anyway from your own policy and won't need to make a claim against the owner.

Also....you would likely have personal liability against the thief so you could try to collect against that person.

A car with liability insurance only is borrowed and in an accident Car is totaled Whose insurance will cover?

When a car is borrowed (with permission) the insurance of the car owner is primary and the insurance of the driver is secondary. Here, the car owner has no coverage to pay for the damage to his/her own car, so the driver's liability insurance would cover the cost of the car. That is assuming the driver has liability insurance, if the driver doesn't have liability insurance, the car owner is stuck (unless he sues the driver).
