Can antivirus work like virus?

No, but a virus can work like an antivirus, so to speak. Malware called trojan horses pretend to be a helpful program (such as antivirus), but really work to break your system or collect your data.

Does computer need to be turned on when running anti virus scan?

Yes, a computer must be turned on to run an antivirus scan. All programs residing in an operating system (and the operating system itself) will work and function if and only if the computer is booted. However, you can still run antivirus while the computer is idle. Some antivirus scanners will still work if the computer runs into sleep mode. Software needs hardware to be able to work. So, you need to boot up the computer to start any programs (including antivirus scan).
