Can I get Twitch drops even when I'm away?

Hi some of you probably know the new game Valorant from Riot Games and to get a beta key you have to watch live streams (from Valorant) on twitch to get a Twitch drop. Now the question is whether I will get a Twitch drop if my Twitch status is absent because I run the stream in the background and do something else besides. And is there a way to set my status?

Think that if you are marked as absent, it is not counted as the time watched

I got my access when I was offline, so I didn't look at it. So definitely yes!
