I don't think it is because even Steam games without DRM are still modified to work with Steam for things like achievements. There may be games without DRM and without achievements but if a game has either of them it will not work without it.

I think they'll still work without Steam, otherwise you couldn't play them offline either

They work without reaching the Steam online service, but they need Steam installed.
