Possibly not, the IP address is allocated to the client MAC address of the network connection, not the actual modem. The client MAC address would be the MAC address of your NIC, if you are using ethernet as the modem connection.

If of course you have a router etween your modem and PC, and you leave the router on, then you may well keep the IP address currently assigned to you.
