YES. While most Asian countries are no longer monarchies, some Asian countries still have kings or queens, like Saudi Arabia, Jordan, Bahrain, Thailand, and Cambodia. Others have hereditary sovereigns (monarchs) who are not specifically called "kings" or "queens". For example, Brunei and Oman are both Sultanates and Kuwait, Qatar, and the UAE are all Emirates, but all five are ruled by people who are effectively kings, even though the title will be "sultan" or "emir".
Additionally, in India, there are the Maharaja, who are the descendants of the former kings of the various independent regions of India. However, while the Maharaja keep their titles, they have very little if any political power or governmental role.

Why is a constitutional monarchy considered a form of democracy?
The underlying assumption of this question, which is that constitutional monarchies are considered democracies by dint of being constitutional monarchies, is false. "Constitutional Monarchy" simply means that the power of the monarch (king) is limited by a constitution. This constitution can be enforced by some kind of oligarchy, aristocracy, or the common gentry. If the constitution is enforced by an oligarchy or aristocracy, the resulting state is not a democracy, whereas if it is enforced by the common gentry, it is democratic.
Now, since almost all current constitutional monarchies are of this latter variety (monarchies with a constitution enforced by common people), people generally drop the intermediate step of separating non-democratic constitutional monarchies from democratic constitutional monarchies and refer to constitutional monarchies as a form of democracy.
