Answer

No

Work Step by Step

We know that for an LC circuit, the angle between the current and voltage is $+90^{\circ}$ or $-90^{\circ}$ The power consumed by an LC circuit is given as $P_{avg}=V_{rms}\times I_{rms}\times cos\phi$ $P_{avg}=V_{rms}\times I_{rms}\times cos(\pm 90^{\circ})=0$ because $cos(\pm 90^{\circ})=0$ Thus, an LC circuit consumes zero power.
