Hint-To check if the given in the question is valid, we observe the phenomenon of a Leap year.

Complete step-by-step answer:

The answer is yes, February has 29 days in a leap year, in which there are 366 days in the year.

Note – A leap year has one extra day compared to the regular year, which becomes the 29th day of the month February. Otherwise in a normal year, February has 28 days.
A leap year occurs once in four years. There are roughly 365.24 days in a year, which means that we need to add 1 extra day once every 4 years, and a year with 1 extra day is known as a leap year. We need to do this to ensure that we don't fall several hours behind each year. If a year is divisible by 4, but not divisible by 100 then it is a leap year.
