No, that does not constitute a dribble. In fact, the player could repeat what he did as many times as he wanted (sans other types of violation). This is true under NFHS (high school), NCAA, and NBA rules.

Bainsey, I took it to mean that the player hadn't dribbled yet. If he had dribbled, then I agree that the player grabbing the ball with both hands ended the dribble. As soon as he dribbled again, we'd have an illegal/double dribble violation.
