Both depending on the context.

To joke to tell a joke is an action, so it is a verb.

A joke itself is a thing, so it is a noun.

A verb is a word that describes an action (run, walk, etc), a state of being (exist, stand, etc) or occurrence (happen, become, etc).

A noun is a word that is used to describe a person (man, lady, teacher, etc), place (home, city, beach, etc) or thing (car, banana, book, etc).
