Yes! sudo apt install libreoffice-writer will install that package as well as certain other core LibreOffice packages. You will need to install the help package separately if you want help offline.
See the following output:
$ apt list --installed | grep -i libreoffice

$
The ones listed as "installed" are what I installed. The rest listed as "installed,automatic" come in as a matter of course.
You can do a "dry run" to see what would be installed using -s to specify you're only running a simulation and so sudo isn't needed.
With 19.04,
apt install -s libreoffice
gives me
0 upgraded, 83 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.
Whereas
apt install -s libreoffice-writer
gives me
0 upgraded, 28 newly installed, 0 to remove and 0 not upgraded.

Use 'apt-cache show <package>' to look at the dependencies of packages you want to install. Some may be unavoidable. For example libreoffice-core installs a ton of dependencies. If you really want to go minimal then download LibreOffice binary directly from LibreOffice and do a minimal install.

I have purged completely libreoffice* from my system and then tried with --no-install-recommends and did not find major difference in terms of saving the space by no recommended packages.. it is showing 26 in place of 28.. also the sizes comparison is 74 & 76MB

@PRATAP, I hope you've installed the libreoffice-gtk3 package. That will ensure that your LibreOffice looks decent.

@ggdx Actually, it's closed-source and Linux support is shaky.
