Yes. Gravity can be considered a noncontact force. There is no requirement of the force to touch the object which the force exerts itself on.
Force of Gravity.
Gravity,Magnetism,Strong nuclear force,Weak nuclear force
electromagnetic, gravity...any force that doesn't require two objects touching each other
That simply means that it requires no contact between the objects to act.

force can be classified as contact and noncontact
Electic Force At A Distance By Jhon
A sound field, an electrical field, a magnetic field, and a gravity field would all be examples of non-contact forces. But though their effects are 'non-contact' their presence may nevertheless be easily detected.
Universal gravitation.
The contact force will keep the ball moving but as the ball goes farther the ball slows down that's were the non contact force comes in it makes the ball not in contact
Gravity is a force.
