Yes. Somalia has been a member of the Arab League since 1974 and one of the two official languages in the country is Arabic (the other is Somali). That said, there are very few ethnic Arabs living in Somalia - the country has a heterogenous population, consisting mostly of ethnic Somalis (~ 85%) and other African tribes.
