Yes, it is possible to send data in background. In Android, you need to use a service for that type of application. Here you can find a more complet answer.
But be careful with that. It is not a good practice because running the sensors continuously like that would drain the battery quickly.

Both Android and iOS can do this! I just give you a Android example because I am more used to it :) – Ailton Ramos Dec 04 '17 at 16:09
