Yes, drivers can receive points even if they retire before the race ends, provided they have completed sufficient race distance.

Under the 2010 Formula 1 points system, the driver finishing tenth receives 1 point. This was part of the expanded points system that awarded points to the top 10 finishers, whereas the previous system only gave points to the top 8.
