Yes it should.

It's a simple system really, controlled by a constant flow of hydraulic fluid when the engine is running, and a leveling valve hooked to the rear suspension on the right side. If the suspension goes down far enough, the valve will direct hydraulic fluid into the system until it raises, enough to hit the neutral zone on the hydraulic valve and shut off flow. If the suspension raises enough, the valve will bleed fluid back out of the system into the return flow to the reservoir. Pretty much the same as an air suspension on a truck or bus except closed-loop hydraulic.

If loaded, and you unload the car with the engine off, it will lower without the key on. It will not however raise without the engine running.
