yes . . . a common noun is any people, place, or thing, and a van is a thing, so that makes it a common noun

'Van' is a common noun because it refers to a general type of vehicle rather than a specific brand or model and is not capitalized. Common nouns denote general classes of items, whereas proper nouns name specific entities. Therefore, 'van' fits into the category of common nouns.
