You can test this yourself.

Lock your Boxster, then leave her for a week. When you return to drive her, try to unlock her with the remote control on the key fob.

You will discover that the car does not respond. You will have to physically insert your key in the door to unlock her.

Of course, you could also invest five minutes and read your owner’s manual. Just a thought. You spent a bunch of money on a semi-exotic German sports car, the least you could do is spend a lunch break with a cup of coffee and read your owner’s manual.

Good luck.
Interesting.
I would have never thought that a twenty year old car had a "deep sleep" feature.
Always something new to learn about these cars.
