No. Fallout 76 has no offline mode, and playing on PlayStation requires both an internet connection and PlayStation Plus. Being able to tackle many quests solo does not let you play without connecting online.
Why Fallout 76 cannot be played offline
Bethesda Support states that “Fallout 76 does not have an offline mode.” The game requires an internet connection, so owning a copy of the game does not provide an offline way to play. Bethesda Support

Do you need PlayStation Plus to play Fallout 76?
Yes. Bethesda says an internet connection and a PlayStation Plus membership are required to play on PlayStation. The U.S. PlayStation Store listing for PS4 and PS5 likewise says online play is required, PlayStation Plus is required for online play, and a persistent broadband internet connection is required. Bethesda Support · PlayStation Store
Does solo play or Private Adventure work offline?
Solo quests
Bethesda says many quests accommodate solo play. That means you can approach those quests on your own while connected; it does not mean the game has an offline single-player mode. Bethesda Support

Private Adventure
Bethesda identifies Private Adventure as an option for Fallout 1st members. The support page does not describe it as offline play, so it is not an alternative to an internet connection or PlayStation Plus. Bethesda Support
Independent reader supportYour contribution helps us test, update, and keep practical guides available for everyone.Does PlayStation Plus Extra or Premium change the requirement?
Bethesda says subscribers to PlayStation Plus Extra or Premium do not need to buy Fallout 76 separately while it is available in the subscription catalog. Access depends on both the subscription remaining active and the game remaining in the catalog. Catalog access does not remove the game’s online-play requirement. Bethesda Support · PlayStation Store
Quick Recap
Best Value
- You will emerge: multiplayer finally comes to the epic open world rpg's of Bethesda game Studios. Create your character with the S.P.E.C.I.A.L system and forge your own path in a new and untamed Wasteland with hundreds of locations. Whether you journey alone or with friends, a new and unique Fallout adventure awaits.
- mountain Splendorland: all-new graphics, lighting and landscape technology brings to life six distinct West Virginia regions. From the forests of Appalachia to the noxious Crimson expanses of the Cranberry Bog, each region offers its own risks and rewards. Post-nuclear America has never looked so beautiful.
- a new American dream: use the all-new construction and assembly mobile platform (C.A.M.P.) to build and craft anywhere in the world. Your C.A.M.P. Will provide much-needed shelter, supplies, and safety. You can even set up shop to trade goods with other survivors. But beware, not everyone will be quite so neighbourly.
- the power of the Atom: go it alone or with fellow survivors to unlock access to the ultimate weapon - nuclear missiles. This destruction also creates a high-level zone with rare and valuable resources. Do you protect or unleash the power of the Atom? The choice is yours
