Can the timing belt being off or bad cause a truck to suddenly turn off 1500 Silverado 03 180000 miles no engine light on?

That year did not have a timing belt. It has a timing chain and gears. If the timing chain broke then yes . It will just quit running and will not start.
You need to check the fuel pressure FIRST and then make sure the engine is firing next. I don't think the timing chain went out. it is not a common problem with that year. It would help if WE new the engine size too. I would check things out real close before putting a timing chain in it. There is a lot of things that could just shut the engine off with out the check engine light coming on.
