what kind of vehicle is this? Are the bearings easily available to be inspected? What signs, if any, are you getting that you have a bad bearing? If they are the kind that need to be packed, then take the wheel off and repack them. If they are sealed bearings, then leave them alone unless you are getting some indication of a bearing problem (see above post). A torque wrench won't tell you anything, necessarily, too many other variables at work (temp of bearing grease, dragging brake, play or no play in differential, your skill at using a torque wrench, etc.).
