Every night we schedule the exchange services to stop at 11pm and start at 6
am. Our email is held up at our ISP and is delivered when our exchange
server is back online at 6am. My understanding is that if I had to do a
restore, I would have all email up until 11:00pm the night before.
I'm confused about the transaction logs. Would having transaction logs up
until the point of failure help me at all if I'm only doing an offline back
up? It sounds like I need to have an online back up to use these
transaction logs if I were to have any hope of restoring to the point of
failure.

You can do backups without the Exchange Agents by stopping the services and
doing off-line backups. But then, you can't restore to the point of failure
(transaction logs won't be applied to an off-line restore). The Exchange
agent allows the backup to work with the Exchange System Attendant to backup
or restore an online database.
