Yup. You can tell it to take no action when the lid is closed (Settings > Power). That's as close as you'll get to a "power nap" either on Ubuntu or Windows - the power savings of a "power nap" are negligible at best.

Other than that (really just leaving your laptop on), there's nothing you can do as far as I know.
