yes, as this is when your body has a chance to repair itself.

For example:

It has been shown that you actually continue to burn calories in you sleep after exercising during the same day as this is when your body has a chance to repair and rebuild muscle and bones etc.

You also use energy breathing and for your heart beating etc

However this doesnt mean you can eat loads just before bed and burn it off. the amount of energy used is much less than during the day (assuming your somewhat active)

hope this helps.
