Can you get electrocuted if the switch is off but the breaker is on?
Yes you can. The proper wiring of a switch is to bring the hot wire to the top of the switch terminal and connect the load to the bottom of the switch.

By not turning the breaker off, the voltage is present at the top of the switch which could subject you to a nasty shock if you come into contact with it.
