important! can car air con be on if engine is off?

The system depends on the engine driven compressor and air flow over the condenser, so NO

The air con compressor is driven by a belt off the engine. So if the motor is stopped so too is the compressor.

NO,
the aircon compressor is belt driven.
the engine drives this belt.
engine off = compressor off
therefore. no cold freon circulating.
