Yes, but only in a sense. Feces can contain cells and parts of dead cells but, since it is composed of wastes from food ingestion and digestion and from the body's other metabolic processes and is not a living organism itself, it doesn't have its own functioning cells. It has only cells incorporated into the debris awaiting elimination in the bowel. Stool also contains cells of organisms like bacteria and sometimes parasites, some skin cells, some blood cells and other cells from the body that are introduced to the gastrointestinal tract and then eliminated.
