It depends on what you mean by "dormant". The pupae are in a state of rest which could be considered dormancy while they metamorphose into adults inside their cocoons. The last generation of Luna moths each summer may pupate in fall and lie dormant during the winter inside their cocoons, and emerge in spring. Hope that helps.
