Strictly speaking no. Because critical point is the point with in the domain...

But when we solve problems we have to consider these points...

Yeah..like nishant bhaiya says, for eg when we draw the graphs of such functions, we draw a dotted line across these points where, in the words of my sir, "function pagla jaata hai" lol. Here the function's value tends to infinity either above or below. depends on sign.
