Yes. More specifically, the Communist Party of China is very proud of its ideological roots going back to Marx, Lenin and Mao. They call their economic system socialism with chinese characteristics. But they don't see the current stage to be the full realization of socialism, but as being in the beginning stage of building socialism.

That's like asking whether the USA considers itself capitalist, when it has all sorts of socialized things, like police, fire dept, sewage, roads, etc.
