Yes. All vertebrates (mammals, birds, fish, reptiles and amphibians) mate.
Platypus mating rituals involve the male chasing the female around in a circle. They have a complex system of side-passing, under-passing and over-passing each other, until the male finally grasps the female's tail in his bill, and they continue circling tightly until mating occurs.
