Yes, during some life stages. When frogs are tadpoles they breathe under water through internal gills, and their skin. And then later they develop into land animals and develop lungs for breathing air.

Frogs breathe with their mouths closed, the throat sack pulls air through the nose and into their lungs. Frogs nostrils are placed on top of their head so they can be in the water and breathe at the same time just like a crocodile floats and has eyes on top if its head to be on guard.

How frogs does live without water?

The majority of frogs do not live in water. True aquatic frogs are very rare. Most frogs need to live in moist areas or near water because they are amphibians and their skin dries out very quickly if they are too dry. However, they only enter it for a few minutes at a time. Despite this, a lot of terrestrial frogs are very good swimmers. The majority of frogs breed in water, but some of them do not. One species, the beautiful Red-Eyed Leaf Frog, lays its eggs on branches that overhang water. This protects them from aquatic predators in their embryonic stages when they cannot escape. When the tadpoles hatch they fall into the water to complete their development. Other species have bypassed water altogether. The Australian nursery frogs lay their eggs in moist leaf litter. The eggs are much larger than normal frog eggs and the tadpoles complete their development inside them, emerging as fully formed frogs with no tails. All of the frogs that lack a free swimming tadpole stage still go through being a tadpole, they just never leave their eggs.
