No. It won't backup to a computer or to iCloud if it isn't on. Also see: How to back up your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support

I doubt that they would be able to either but it wouldn't hurt to check with Apple Support. See: Contact - Official Apple Support

So if my phone only stays on for a few minutes at a time is there no way to back it up to a computer or to icloud. Is there anyway for someone wokring at an apple store to back it up
