Yes, "fry" is a homograph as it can have multiple meanings and pronunciations. It can refer to cooking something in hot oil, or a young fish. Both uses have the same spelling but different meanings and pronunciations.

Is the word fry a homograph?

No. A homograph is a word that has the same spelling and two different pronunciations. All the meanings of fry have the same pronunciation, so it wouldn't be a homograph. The exception could be a Proper Noun... someone with the name Fry might pronounce it as rhyming with tree. In that case it would be a homograph and also a homophone, with the word free. However, I am not aware of such a name pronunciation.
