Of course they do. That's how an iPod could play FairPlay content without a network connection. They didn't strip the DRM upon upload the the iPod.
I'm sure the Netflix files on your iPad are still DRMed. They just give you some kind of key that's only good for a limited amount of time.
I guess the practical question here is whether that functionality is usable via the javascript API:s.
I'd expect it is if the browser implements the security plugin infrastructure that Netflix (and others) have been pushing.
Up until very recently Netflix has been saying that offline viewing is not something they want.
