Yes it is. With whatever indenting your style guide has. There is the issue that "bouncing the ball of conversation", thus only one paragraph or better one sentence is best. Otherwise the reader can forget who is speaking. It's also unnatural unless it's either an actual speech or some other deliberate monologue.
Some characters are deliberately given a speechified manner and other characters find them annoying.
Does right margin look ragged? (good dialogue). Or on fully justified is the dialogue looking like narration?
