No, duck is not a verb. It is a noun. It is a thing, and the definition of noun is person, place or thing. It is a common noun, not a proper noun, because it is not capitalized unless it is at the beginning of a sentence. Now, if you are talking about ducking, as in, "Duck! The shoe is about to hit you!" than yes, I suppose it is.
