Actually it could be even if you are Offline and I think it is not very influential in the delivery of bitcoin you receive.
I think it is very possible once we are also Offline, because I think it does not affect the delivery of Offline, and all would be fine.
Electrum wallet are a good and save wallet to start with, its easy and cheap to use. But you should also think about getting a hardware wallet, Ledger Nano S cost around 100 usd. What ever you do, don't keep all your btc on an exchange, like coinbase, they can close down, and leave you with nothing.
make sure to get your private key, and keep those seed words in a save place. Never on a computer-

Your wallet software is simply a key to unlock your bitcoins and spend them, it does not actually hold bitcoins nor host the wallet. The blockchain holds your balance and every full node on the network has a copy of it. In the language of cryptocurrency, a block is a record of new transactions (that could mean the location of cryptocurrency, medical data or even voting record. So it doesn't really make sense to be able to send one crypto to another network simple because the networks themselves are different, an ETH address is not valid on the BTC blockchain and vice-versa.

Your wallet is responsible for your keys, not your funds. The bitcoins you own are in the public blockchain (everyone can see them but only you can use them).Here is how Andreas M. Antonopoulos describes this situation in "Mastering Bitcoin":
Quote
Wallets contain keys, not coins. The coins are stored on the block‐chain in the form of transaction-outputs (often noted as vout or txout). Each user has a wallet containing keys. Wallets are really key‐chains containing pairs of private/public keys... Users sign transactions with the keys, thereby proving they own the transaction outputs (their coins).

You're wallet needs not to be online inorder to receive payments as long as they send you btc you will be able to receive it when youre wallet got internet connection and sync.
But in future, keep in mind that you will need to be online if you want to receive these bitcoins over a Lightning payment channel.
Your wallet software doesn't actually hold your "coins", just your key to unlock them and spend them. The blockchain holds your balance and every full node on the network has a copy of it. It doesn't matter if you're offline, your wallet will show you your latest balance once you're online again, because the other nodes it connects to will update it.
Yes. As long as you're sending the funds to the right address, the wallet will receive the bitcoin whether you're online or not.
