Probably not in many cases.

The big thing that Microsoft and as lot of other companies do these 
days when you download some kind of upgrade, is to only download a 
stub, which starts running and inventorying your configuration and 
then it goes out on the internet and pulls in the specific .DLL's 
and .EXE's that actually comprise the upgrade.    It doesn't do it 
that way all the time but that technique is becoming annoyingly 
common.  

Why do you want your machine totally off the 'Net?
