A lot of boards need to be in the 'UP' state to scan. If you do a,

Can one do scanning while one is using the wifi interface to make
a connection? (Like I'm doing right now to send this email from my
remote server?)
More often than not, yes, you can scan, but it will momentarily drop
your connection (as the radio has to switch frequencies to do the scan).
Also, if I'm using the wifi NIC does that mean it is in UP state?
Yes.
