From iCloud, yes.

From a Mac or Windows backup, no.

Restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch from a backup - Apple Support

From the above, emphasis added:

Stay connected and wait for a progress bar to appear and complete. Depending on the size of the backup and the network speed, the progress bar might need a few minutes to an hour to complete. If you disconnect from Wi-Fi too soon, the progress will pause until you reconnect.
