Yes. Although lack is usually used as a noun, it can also be a verb.

Noun example sentence:

- Shaun's lack of attendance is worrying the teacher.

Verb example sentence:

- The candidate lacks the votes needed to win the election.

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).
