Does the web socket let you see the history while your device was sleeping?

Not familiar with the service but is irccloud one of those services that sits in the middle and converts IRC to a modern http protocol for your device to consume?

Yes but not only. If you pay for their service It's also an IRC bouncer, meaning you can bring your own IRC client. It'll replay messages for you.
