No, javascript runs client-side and in the browser so without having a client or browser it has nothing to run. Not sure what it is you want to achieve but you might want to look into cronjobs if you want source code to run without having a client activating it.NewToJS– NewToJS2016-05-19 06:32:49 +00:00Commented May 19, 2016 at 6:32

1As others have said: no. There may still be ways to solve your problem, just not the way you think. Explain what you want to achieve instead.David Hedlund– David Hedlund2016-05-19 06:33:30 +00:00Commented May 19, 2016 at 6:33

JavaScript can be run by any interpreter for JavaScript such as the windows script host or node.js runtime environment. But those are different environments with different global scope. For example, using windows, you can save a .js-file from a webapp to the desktop and try to run it. The windows script host will run it but likely fail because it does not have the same objects in its global scope that browsers use.
A script executed inside a browser will always terminate with the browser as the browser is the process executing the script. The script itself isn't in a native executable format and, thus, can't be run by the OS itself instead it requires the browser to interpret the code.
