That is a slim to none chance. They fail the other way. The engine won't shut off. See below:

The sticky cut-off valve theory that G Mann brought up as a possible
source of the problem.  How to I fix that?

 Go outside and perform all the tests you have been told about and then
 report back.

It would be easy to spot a shut off valve jammed down. open the hood and look at the position of the shutoff lever with the key on. For more drama, open the hood and look and watch it pop up when your helper turns on the key.

I almost never say something is impossible, especially with cars, but the shut off sticking down as a cause is as near impossible as anything can be. The engine would not start the first time if the shutoff was held down.

Go out and do the other tests.  and tell us the results of each.
