Yes. The work is being done by whoever is pushing rather then the engine, but work is being done. Any time a force is applied through a distance, work is being done.

Work done is not a state function?
In mechanics,work done(work=force.displacement of body) by a body is independent of path.It only depends on the initial and final state of the body.However in thermodynamics,the work done by an ideal gas(work=pressure.change in volume of gas) depends on the path taken(isochoric,isothermal,isobaric,adiabatic)
What is a sentence for gas?

Does gas expand under pressure and does it release energy into the environment?
I believe you are describing endothermic and exothermic reactions. An endothermic reaction is work done on the system by the surroundings. For example, gas engines- the cylinder does work on the gas/oxygen mix and in internally stores the energy until it is combusted, by means of a spark plug to form CO sub 2 and HOH (i.e. water). exothermic reactions, however, are those which are work done by the system on the surroundings. Any combustion reaction is an exothermic reaction.
