No.
Science is the study of the natural world and his argument that CS meets this requirement fails. Think about mathematics. Just because mathematicians are interested in, say, calculus, and calculus can be used to model physical phenomena, does not make mathematics a science. CS can be a tool used for science, just like math, but it in itself is not a science.
