Thank you for taking the time to review my query. I will try to elaborate.
What do I mean by "Does the application work as a completely standalone
application?"
- Does the application at any time reach out to the internet for any reason
during execution?
- Does it share any meta-data, retrieve updated instructions, or anything
else?
- Basically, if I put a packet sniffer between my computer and the
internet, would the packet sniffer find even one packet that was sent or
received as a result of executing the listed command?
Thank you again in advance,
Jay

No. The image stays on the computer on which this command is run.

I have no idea what that means. If you mean it is separate from
qemu-system-<arch>, then yes, but it's usually part of the same
package.
