It could go both ways. Simple example might be an offline GPS app, allow it location but not network other than when downloading maps. Network based location is a crude thing at the IP level, but can get pretty accurate if based on BT/WiFi access point.
It’s a bit better with the ‘only when in use’ option on modern versions, but ‘in use’ could be a bit subjective if an app keeps a running service in the background. I seem to recall that Graphine has them split out as two distinct things.

Oh i see. CalyxOS has a built in firewall app to restrict that, which is handy.
