If it’s to avoid all animal products no matter what, then it’s not, because it’s an animal product.
If it’s to avoid exploitation of animals, than it is, because it’s given willingly.
There are definitely moments when I don’t want to breastfeed, but I still do because I think it’s best for the baby, it’s free, and it requires no washing up of bottle parts. In those moments, I’m not being forced, but I’m not 10000% willing either. Still vegan at those times?
Depends on your rationale.

I’m curious where this question is coming from. Why does it matter whether you attach the label “vegan”?
You have free will. Animals giving us milk do not.
