If drilling holes into a mountain is a portion of the mountain being turned to dust, sure. Doesn't change the fact that we still have no idea if and how badly the facility was damaged. And considering that Israel seems to be bombing the access roads to prevent Iran from assessing the damage we'll have to be patient a little while longer. Either way no one is claiming anymore that Fordow has been completely destroyed. Neither the Israelis nor the US government.
Even with that, I still expect significant damage to disable the facility for some time without significant repair and excavation that will be visible from satellites. It's a way to keep these stations monitored.
