They might be local notifications from the app itself, not remote push notifications.

And there is no way to turn these off. The app just has to schedule them while its running.

but then wouldn't they only show when the app is running? I get these notifications all the time, even when the app is not suspended.

No, they happen locally on your phone, at a later time.
