" Raccoons live in North and South America. They live on both the ground and it trees. Some live alone and others live in small family groups. Each raccoon has a home range. The home range is about 200 acres. The adult male may roam about 2 miles from this range.
Raccoons stay in their dens during the day. Raccoons that live in wooded areas have their dens in a hollow log, stump, or in a tree. They also make their homes in abandoned barns or farmhouses. In marshy areas that have no trees raccoons make their nests in the high grass.
Raccoons live in North and South America. Raccoons that live in the north sleep for long periods of time during the winter, but they do not hibernate."

Raccoons do not truly hibernate. In colder climates they may enter a state of torpor in the winter. This is a step below hibernation. Some body functions slow down (heartbeat, breathing, etc.). However, the raccoon may awaken periodically and leave its den. It may even eat before returning for another extended sleep period. In warmer climates, they may stay active year 'round

I don't know--why don't you check a web site about raccoons?
They seem to come up on my back porch all winter long looking for food so my guess would be "no".
