Yes food does continue to digest in your stomach while you're lying down and sleeping so even after you eat food the food can still be in your stomach.

Then when you go to sleep you can feel full after eating the food and then when you wake up you usually feel hungry again and need to eat breakfast.

So during the night while you were asleep your stomach digested the food because you're hungry again.

So yes food does digest while laying down and while asleep so you can eat food before going to sleep and it will be digested when you wake up.
