No -- IMO falls in the same category as bathrobe. Unless it's a disposable yoga mat the hotel is almost certainly intending for it to be re-used like the ones they (may) have in their gym.
Hopefully they are wiping them down and cleaning them in the same manner they clean other surfaces in the room.
