It doesn't appear that way.
In Pokemon Go, there is a setting called Adventure Sync:
Which allows you to link to your phones health data and collect walking distance while the app isn't open.
However, in Wizards Unite, this setting doesn't exist.
Doing a quick google search for "Wizards Unite Adventure Sync" you can see a lot of posts where people want this feature. Let's all hope it comes soon!
