Depending on how strictly you define "Federal Republic"--yes. Strictly speaking, the United States is a constitutional republic (not a democracy as is often said). Generally speaking, a federal republic is a system in which the central government is above state/local governments, but state/local governments maintain a degree of power in their own domains. In this way, the U.S. government closely approximates a federal republic.
