No, Piper does not see her grandmother alive. Her grandmother, Celeste Chapman, passed away before Piper was able to visit her during her furlough from prison.
Upon her furlough being approved, Piper called her mother, at which point she learned the somber news of Celeste's passing. Consequently, Piper's visit home involved attending her grandmother's funeral. This event was also notably the location for her brother's wedding, creating a complex mix of emotions and family gatherings for Piper during her brief release. Therefore, while Piper was present for the memorial service, she did not have an opportunity to interact with her grandmother while she was alive.
