I would say no, but in my experience, they still do.
The should not but they still do.
Technically, if the instructor is demonstrating, it's dual received but not any type of flight time. They still do and my guess is that the FAA would look the other way. If the instructor does the approach, what are we talking about? Maybe 0.1? Not worth getting worked up over. If it's more extensive than that though, the FAA could be concerned if it were brought to their atttention.
