Anise oil is what's called an "essential oil" that is typically recovered by steam distillation from a spice, is highly flavored, and costs several bucks an ounce, while "vegetable oil" usually refers to oils that are cold-pressed from oily but mostly bland seeds (cottonseed, rapeseed, sunflower seeds, corn) and are much less expensive.

If you're asking if it's vegetarian/vegan ... yes. If you're asking if you can substitute it for vegetable oil in a recipe, I wouldn't.
