If it is, it is a mix. The ears are not erect and the muzzle appears to be too long and narrow. The body seems too long as well. It is difficult to determine with only an image. The definitive way to determine breed would be to have a canine DNA test done on him. You can submit a cheek swab or a blood sample.
