If you want the most annoying answer ever, technically everything alive is genetically related. You share over half your genetic code with wheat.
I assume you meant to ask if they are directly descended from dinosaurs, and the answer is yes (not looking for any religious debates here, IMO the process of evolution could just as well be God’s way of accomplishing His creation, like Charles Darwin himself believed).
One specific group of dinosaurs, theropods, are supposedly where they come from. They were highly related to oviraptors. You’re probably better off looking it up if you’re interested. I think T Rex was also a theropod, but a different branch unrelated by some 65 million years.
