If your application is in the foreground, yes!

If your app is suspended (already in the background), the app has to be brought to the foreground for the "didReceiveLocalNotification:" method to fire and for you to be able to begin your background task.

Check out Apple's documentation for "beginBackgroundTaskWithExpirationHandler:" method for more details on how to properly use this API.
