By the companies that build them they consider anything that has no lugs attached to the shell is a lugless drum, so compaired to Whitney, Sleishman, Guru prototypes, etc then yes it would be considered lugless. Also if I may point out the Pearl free floating snare uses a radial bridge type design on one end (they used thick/strong enough shells to support a bearing edge on the other end eliminating the need for a second one) which allows the heads to be tuned independently of each other which you cant do on the Sleishman free floaters that do not incorporate any type of bridge design.
