Generally, no. RAM is volatile memory, which means that all data there will be lost when the computer is powered off. Normally your computer only uses it for data (and programs) which is currently in use. But there ARE devices that use RAM for data storage (e.g. PDAs and some fancy solid-state drives). These devices usually provide a battery to power the RAM when the device is turned off.

Note that DVD-RAM is a rewritable non-volatile media. It retains its data when powered off but you can change the data later.
