Sure, but in my view, that does not justify a survival game tag.
If it were the case that using food to improve your chances of progressing constitutes survival, then PacMan would be a survival game. You could avoid eating a power pellet to get through a level, but the fact that you can eat a power pellet to make it easier doesn't make it survival. Super Mario Bros would also be a survival game if such a loose definition was allowed. You could get through levels without a mushroom, but just because you can and should use a mushroom isn't enough.
