Depends on the app.
With Google Maps, that does not work well. If you do not believe that (since Google offers such downloads), try it yourself. Put your device into "flight mode", and then check. Great experience when even large rivers (like Rhine) are missing. No restaurants on the map either. Your "my places" collection not available. Etc.
True, with e.g. Osmand, that works.
Oh sanctissimi Wilhelmus, Theodorus, et Fredericus!
