Yes, it will actually dose standing on three legs. But for real REM sleep, they lay down in recumbancy or out on their sides.

What are the conditions for a person that he may be able 2 sleep by standing upright on his legs without any other support like the horse does?

I doubt a human could do this. A horse has a mechanism in their legs that locks up their leg and allows them to sleep standing up without their legs crumpling under them. It also helps that they have four legs to stand on. A human would have to have supurb balance and be able to lock their legs up and keep them that way, even in their sleep.
