By strict definition, I’d say no, but it’s no less fun.
In my opinion, “cooking” or “baking” would not be defined as going out to buy fresh ingredients to stock your fridge, spending the day searching bookstores or the internet for new recipes to try, and watching videos of how to make a specific dish. However, it carries its own fun, sense of anticipation, and payoff for when it comes time to actually get in the kitchen, pull out the mixing bowls, and fire the oven.
Did the person who spent the entire day preparing to bake, “bake” that day?
