I assume you meant "by" and "the AsyncTask finishes" - yes, of course it's
possible. You just have to dismiss the dialog faster than it takes the task
to run.

AsyncTask is not something that "closes". You can *cancel* it, if that's
what you mean. But it doesn't do that automatically either. It does what
you tell it to do. In this case, if your dialog goes away, you need to tell
the task to stop doing what it's doing.

how can i tell if the AlertDialog is shown or no longer active.

Look at it's documentation. There are methods for being told when it is
dismissed, canceled, or is currently showing.
