The Earth does have a sort of internal power source and it might be possible for something to live off of geothermal energy, but the oceans would freeze and anything that relies on them would die.

The *surface* of the oceans would freeze, insulating the water beneath - ice is an excellent insulator of thermal energy. Critters living beside geothermal vents on the ocean floor could cheerfully continue for a very, very long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
