IMHO yes.
The OSM wiki explicitly lists several examples with push button taps.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tap_(valve) tells

This definition applies not only to screw-down but also to push button taps.
The further text describes different types of taps. Amongst them:

If a pull-type tap is so widely called tap, a push-type does IMHO
qualify too, as it is only inverted direction of movement.
