No, but iOS can kill apps in the background during times of high memory pressure.

So it can run xcode for about 4 seconds until the OS decides to kill it?

Killing Xcode would also end your debug session. Presumably Apple will think that far ahead and grant the necessary entitlements so that this doesn't happen.
