I have a requirement where we need to get users location whether or not he opened the app. Is there any possible way we can do it in android?

Do not use alarm manager. Use the new location services API (available all the way back to API 8) and request location updates. See Location Strategies for explanation and example.

Yes it is possible by using Services and AlarmManager classes to trigger application in background.
