cordova - Can phonegap app work in background?

Question

what I mean is working in totally background, e.g. even the screen is shut down, the app is running and can send notifications with a sound.

My app is used for watching price changes. There will be an alert with a sound when a price changes.

So, the answer should be yes or no? Thanks.
