Yes it is, but AFAIK it's still a walled garden. The user has no control over what's going on under the hood. This is different from what most people understand as desktop Linux. Linux is a synonym for full control from the device owner, which in case of ChromeOS is not given.
This is a shortcoming in the naming, and it might be better to find a better term, but this is still the current situation we have.
