Of course. Any kind of physical activity can be counted as exercise, but if what you're meaning to ask is if you can get fit by playing with your dog, then yes! Running with your dog, playing "tag", even playing fetch brings some level of exercise and is certainly better than sitting on the computer. The more vigorously and longer you play with your dog the more exercise you are getting. If playing with your dog causes your heart rate to go up and at the end of the play you feel tired and are catching your breath, you can bet you just had a good workout. =)
