I wouldn't say so. It's far, far closer to a functional programming language than JavaScript is, for instance. But it's clearly nowhere near what Haskell or Standard ML are, either.
Maybe "semi-functional" would be a good term for it and Scheme. It has some of the important elements of functional programming, but not all of them.
