It depends how you define dragon…
There are a number of lizards alive today which are called dragons (e.g. http://www.arkive.org/komodo-dragon/varanus-komodoensis/) but none of these breathe fire and I don’t think any of them fly.
Some dinosaurs looked a bit like the mythical images of dragons people draw, these died out 65 million years ago though.
So the answer really is no. Let me know if you find one though!

Well Komodo Dragons exist and I saw them on holiday a couple of years ago – they are a very ancient species closely related to dinosaurs with poisonous bites and move like the monsters you see in movies… i suppose that’s as close we come!
