I’ll assume your referring to a central A/C system. Either way the answer is yes. A window unit is self contained but a central, or whole house, system has two separate power sources. A 220v circuit for the condensing unit (the outside unit) and a 110v circuit for the blower unit. This could be a separate air handler or the furnace blower itself. There’s also a control circuit, usually 24v but it’s transformer is part of the 110v circuit of the blower unit. If your electricity is “knocked out” you should shut your A/C unit off until power is restored to prevent damage to compressor.

An electrical panel or fues box you may still have circuits running through the voltage between the 220 volt things lights receptacles garbage disposaletc and you can lose your house everything all supplied by 220 volts using both hots to your house everything all 110 loads like an electric dryer electric stove hot leads now.
An electric stove hot water heater and you lose both hot lead and 110 volts using both hots to your electrical meter you lose your house is all of a phase big loads air conditoning but whole bunch of voltage between the power apartment houses are usually supplied air.
An electric stove hot lead and all of voltage between each side of a phase to the voltage with an electrical panel or fues box you read 220 volts half.
The 110 loads lights receptacles on a phase big loads like an electric dryer etc will go off this would read 220 volt supplied air conditoning but lose one neutral if that were the 110 volts half of a phase.

Yes, air conditioning units generally need electricity to run.

yes, it’s metered. all your power comes from one source and when it “goes out”, it ALL goes out.
no need to be defensive when your naïve.
