Generally, yes.

If a particular contract is one that must be in writing (and most don't need to be in writing to be valid), an electronic document will suffice.

How do you execute a document in the US?

"Execute" is an expandable term in law when referring to legal documents. It can mean that a contract has been fully performed by both parties. It is most commonly used to refer to the signing of legal documents. Historically it meant that a legal document had been signed, sealed and delivered. There was a time when a deed was not valid unless there was proof it was delivered to the grantee. Today a properly executed document has been signed by the necessary parties, witnessed, if necessary, and the signatures have been acknowledged by a notary, if necessary. There are different requirements for different types of documents. The purpose of executing a document properly is to render it legally enforceable.

Can a notary notarize a legal document before the document is actually signed?

It depends on what they are notarizing for, if your signature? Then you better be there to sign the documents and prove you are who you say you are. They don't have to stamp and seal "in front" of you, but they had to see you sign and proof of ID. But if they are notarizing for something else, then it might not need to be done in front of you, or even with you there. It could be done a different day and sent to you in the mail for some type of judgment or other decree and been stamped and sealed for a legal testament.
