No, it does not include offline cpus.
For x86 code, remove_siblinginfo() clears the bits.

take_cpu_down ->
  __cpu_disable ->
    native_cpu_disable ->
      cpu_disable_common ->
        remove_siblinginfo

static void remove_siblinginfo(int cpu)
{
        int sibling;
        struct cpuinfo_x86 *c = &cpu_data(cpu);

        for_each_cpu(sibling, cpu_core_mask(cpu)) {
                cpumask_clear_cpu(cpu, cpu_core_mask(sibling));
                /*/
                 * last thread sibling in this cpu core going down
                 */
                if (cpumask_weight(cpu_sibling_mask(cpu)) == 1)
                        cpu_data(sibling).booted_cores--;
        }

        for_each_cpu(sibling, cpu_sibling_mask(cpu))
                cpumask_clear_cpu(cpu, cpu_sibling_mask(sibling));
        cpumask_clear(cpu_sibling_mask(cpu));
        cpumask_clear(cpu_core_mask(cpu));
        c->phys_proc_id = 0;
        c->cpu_core_id = 0;
        cpumask_clear_cpu(cpu, cpu_sibling_setup_mask);
}
