Yes. Generally, "three dimensions" refers to three spatial dimensions: left/right, up/down, forward/backward. And then the fourth dimension is usually time. But if you're not talking about movement in space/time, you can have as many dimensions as you want. For example, in a video game, you can have movement in three dimensions, but you could also allow the player to move through time (fourth dimension), change characters that interact with the world differently (fifth), and so on.
