Seems not, removed WiFi network, turn Bluetooth on, WiFi off. Sleep - wake, WiFi turns on without connection, WiFi enabled, scanning. Granted it won't sync but don't think it's (Clara BW) saving any power. "Wi-Fi scanning (when disconnected) generally consumes more power than being actively connected to a Wi-Fi network".
