Yes, most adult frogs have fully functional lungs plus they can exchange oxygen and carbon dioxide with the air through their skin also or in simpler terms they can breathe through their skin too albeit not in a very efficient manner but enough to keep them alive underwater for extended periods. The African clawed frog is one of the rare exceptions in that the adults are fully aquatic, exchange gas through their skin and do not have lungs.

Frogs and toads go through a process called metamorphosis, which involves distinct physical changes. They start as aquatic tadpoles, breathing through gills and feeding on plant matter. As they grow, they develop limbs and lungs, eventually transitioning into adult frogs or toads with fully developed lungs for breathing on land.
