subject: Perform a hard drive file

On any XP (or NT-based) computer, 

Would performing a file-system integrity check, defragmentation or hard
drive surface scan trigger anti-virus detection if the  system was
handling a malicious file during the task in question?

Can that question be asked generically, or does it depend on which AV
program is installed on the system?
