Can my school spy on my desktop during an at-home quiz? (sh.itjust.works)

I was taking a quiz on D2L on Firefox (windows 11) while using ChatGPT to check my answers when all of a sudden my internet cut in and out. It caused my quiz tab to minimize while everything else stayed open. Then the tab said "internet connection restored".

This has happened twice and both times were during a quiz when I was using ChatGPT.

Is it right to assume that since this is my personal computer then they don't know what else I have on my desktop?
