I think you mean, if you"dot" a quarter note, does it equal a half note? The answer to that is NO. Dotting a note makes it 50% longer, or in other words adds half the original value. If a quarter note gets one beat then a dotted quarter note gets 1.5 beats. A half note is DOUBLE a quarter note, or 100% longer (2 beats). It's easy to think about if you measure in eighth notes: Quarter Note = 2 Eighth Notes Dotted Quarter = 3 Eighth Notes Half Note = 4 Eighth Notes.
A quarter note is equal to 1 beat. A half note is equal to 2 beats. Therefore, two half notes are equal to 2 x 2 = 4 quarter notes.
