In terms of physical geography, no. Australia is its own continent.

In terms of culture, no. While Asian immigration is increasing, most Australians are still descended from Europeans, particularly British ancestors.

In terms of politics and the global economy, Australia does play an important role in the Pacific Rim, but it is still not part of Asia. Some folks may lump Australia, New Zealand, and the thousands of islands of the Pacific with Asia into one, Asia-Pacific category, but that's a group which is too broad to be useful.

For one thing, if you're talking about Asians, you're already talking about most of the people in the world. The combined populations of Australia, New Zealand, Polynesia, Micronesia, and Melanesia are only a small percentage of the population of China, for instance.

According to the CIA, it's classified as located within 'Oceania', which excludes nearly all of Asia.

According to the BBC & quite possibly the government of Britain, it's part of the Asia-Pacific part of the world.

It is really dependent upon who you ask--it's either Oceania or Asia-Pacific.
