It was mentioned in the MIT OCW 16.885/ESD35J lecture series that they were likely conscious briefly while still ascending, when they turned on those PEAPs, (after the shuttle had disintegrated); but they were later unconscious, because of the high altitude and low pressures the non-airtight cockpit was subjected to.
