How to download files with close lid of laptop?

The reason your download stops isn't because you closed the lid, but because closing the lid is causing your laptop to enter sleep mode.

You need to go into control panel in Windows, or System Preferences in OS X and change that behavior.

    I want to download any file (via torrent or download manager) and I want to close my laptop lid too. As I know, it is not possible but is there any way to do this that downloading will be continue even after closing the lid.

    I tried this but its not working for me. I am using windows 8. Whenever I close the lid, my downloading is stops. Here I am talking about the torrent downloading.

    This only addresses the issue of the wireless adapter. The main issue is that the laptop itself goes to sleep when the lid is closed and your solution does not fix that.
