If the laptop is the only computer connected to your internet, then yes, turning it all the way off would keep anything from communicating over the internet during the night. However, if you are infected by a 'time release' bug, it will simply activate the next time you turn your computer on. If the idea is to keep others from infecting you... it would be more likely to occur at some point over the next few days than all of a sudden overnight.

I don't think it's good practice to leave your computer running at night anyway. A lot of people do that, but it just puts more wear and tear on your components.
