Well, it somewhat depends.
In general, I don't believe so, as the XP machine needs
to authenticate the network user with the DC.
It's possible that if the domain is a Windows 2000 domain
that uses Kerberos, the ticket(s) in use might still be
valid and there would be no need to talk to the DC.
As a general rule, network authentication of domain
accounts requires a DC actively responding though.
