No its not. In an option play, the pitch must go slightly backwards like a lateral and when this happens its basically a handoff. At that point its not an interception its a fumble by the offense. The announcers may say that they player "intercepted the pitch" but that does not make it an interception.
I think the whistle would be whistled berfore the fumble could actually happen.
Yes, they aren't going to count for nothing.
