Absolutely. It is in the Plantae kingdom. We usually break this down to the gymnosperms (softwoods) and the angiosperms (hardwood). The hardwood family is broken down into the dicotyledons and the monocotyledons. All this means is that when the plant's seed is forming its embryo. if it has only one embryonic leaf then it is a monocot. If it begins with two leafs then it is a dicot. An example of a dicot would be an Oak, Maple, Beech, or any of the other thousands of species we commonly recognize as trees.

The "Coconut Tree" that you are referring to is a monocotand is in the Palm Family (Arecaceae) Its botanical or scientific name is Cocos nucifera. It is more commonly called a Coconut Palm.
