No, they don't.They have a resting period before cell division and even that is utilized by them to synthesize D.N.A.

I dont' believe they sleep, but they do evolve and die. I think they may rest, or just stop moving for like a second. Follow the link, it might help you! http://www.earthlife.net/prokaryotes/facts.html
