YES!!
When I started commuting (14+ miles each way) I managed to drop 20 pounds in 4 months.
Once on a ride home I even passed a guy (who was wearing postal jersey and shorts) who was doing his afternoon training ride. And I had a rear rack, panniers, and lights on my road bike.

I guess commuting does count as exercise.
