It is not a simile!
No. A simile compares one thing to another. Therefore no one word by itself can be a simile and so the word "as" is not a simile. However the word "as" often forms part of a simile, for example: "he is as brave as a lion".

A complimentary simile example would be 'he's as fit as as a fiddle' (athletic). A critical simile example would be 'he's a snake in the grass' (can't be trusted). It appears that more similes in general are critical than complimentary.

Fit as a Fiddle - in good health; in fine shapeorigin: This expression dates from at least the 1600s. A fiddle that is fit is well-tuned and in good shape and can play terrific music. So , it was combined wth the word 'fit' to become an alliteration. Of course the 'fiddle' here is the colloquial name for violin. 'Fit' didn't originally mean healthy and energetic, in the sense it is often used nowadays to describe the inhabitants of gyms. When this phrase was coined 'fit' was used to mean 'suitable, seemly', in the way we now might say 'fit for purpose'.Thomas Dekker, in The batchelars banquet, 1603 referred to 'as fine as a fiddle':"Then comes downe mistresse Nurse as fine as a farthing fiddle, in her petticoate and kertle."Not long afterwards, in 1616, there's W. Haughton's English-men for my Money, which includes:"This is excellent ynfayth [in faith], as fit as a fiddle."
