Yes and No, Hinduism is defined as "soft polytheistic" which means that there are many Gods/Goddesses that are all one part or form of a single entity . There are 330 million forms of deities that are considered to be the manifestation of Brahman or Atman. S It is also described as "henotheistic" meaning they worship one God but accept the existence of others and "monotheistic" because they believe all the gods and goddesses to be attributes of the one God.
Not to confuse you, but Hindus can be classified further into Smartas, Shaivites and Vaishnavites.
Smartas believe they can choose any deity for worship, Vaishnavites consider Vishnu as the ultimate God and Shaivites see Shiva as the ultimate God.
