It depends on the transmission type; basically the engine is engaged with the transmission and if you lose power and spin from the engine, the wheels will feel a sudden torque to stop turning too. So you could lose control and/or break the transmission.

You’ll also lose power steering and power brakes, so loss of control is quite possible.
