It has the same significance as any other service in Windoze - the equivalent of a demon process in Unix. If any Windows service is stopped, the matching software will function badly or not at all.
Exactly as if you'd kill -9 on a demon.
To answer your question, I doubt you'd be able to start a queue manager. I doubt your running queue managers would continue to do so. They might (I can envisage a scenario where they might), but I'd be nervous about trusting them.
Find a dev box and try it. Experimentation is the best form of learning.
I'm interested to know why you're considering stopping the service? Is it an attempt to save resource?

Its the service which helps the software to run.
Just try out and see, the best approach.

Observed behaviour (CAVEAT: It's on my XP Pro laptop) is that all functions well, i.e. queue managers can be stopped/started/used etc., but obviously no auto-start of queue managers post-shutdown/restart.
I leave the service in manual and stopped on my laptop (for resource saving purposes) and just start queue managers as necessary when playing around, but can see no practical application to not having it run in any other environment but sand pit.
