In a way, yes. The correct definition for 'paw' is: the soft foot of a mammal, generally a quadruped, that has claws or nails.

Platypuses have four limbs, and four feet, so they are quadrupeds. Each foot has soft, sleek fur and ends in strong claws which help it to dig its burrow in the side of a riverbank. The claws have retractable membranes, which turn ordinary clawed feet into webbed feet, ideal for swimming.
