In short, Yes.

The most recent evidence shows that some dinosaur types did evolve into Birds. Some others may have evolved into other forms of life we have today.

The more evidence that we find, the less sure we are that 'dinosaurs' evolved into only one form of life.

Birds may in fact be the descendants of a 'maniraptoran' dinosaur. However it is not known at this time if other forms of dinosaurs evolved into other animals that we have today.

Crocodiles, alligators and tuatara are all descended from species which would now be termed dinosaurs.
