The language of the penalty implies that this action happens while the ball is live.
PENALTY: (Section 13) The ball is dead when the violation occurs and is awarded to the opponents for a throw-in from the designated out-of-bounds spot nearest the violation. (See 6-7-9 Exception d)

Heck, if the player made unintentional contact with an opponent during a dead ball, we can't even call a common foul against him. It wouldn't make sense to allow for a violation to be called during this same time.
