No, sleep mode shuts down most all hardware components (CPU, graphics card, NIC (network card), VDU) to preserve as much power as possible without losing your current computer session by keeping the ram turned on. In turn, the driver that powers your network card is off, the CPU that processes the data is off, and the hard drive that it saves to is off.
