Gonna go out on a limb and say no.
Having been slipped date rape drugs, I was keenly aware that something was going wrong up until I couldn't form new memories. Apparently I was still talking and acting kinda normal except I kept repeating myself. I couldn't form new memories and eventually blacked out. Thankfully some friends took me home. I couldn't even remember how to get into the car but I was carrying on weird conversations. Is it arguable that I was unconscious, while walking and talking? Maybe...
It's an interesting argument but I think it falls short.
I was going to comment something similar and I've had similar experiences.
It's a different form a consciousness for sure, almost like you're repeatedly waking up in the moment you're in, but there is repeated momentary awareness there.
Although I'll hedge a little bit and say that perhaps no memory at all would imply those moments are so short there is no real experience to be had. What I experienced was just enough to form the thought "I am here", before restarting the loop.
That’s horrible, I have seen others in this stupor (helped carry someone to their safe ride home once). Thanks for sharing your story. Everyone should be careful!
