Answer is yes, the first run counts.
However, the rules do differ if a runner is being used (pretty rare). There the answer is no.

From Official Rules.

38.5 Runs scored

If either batter is dismissed Run out, the run in progress when the wicket is put down shall not be scored, but any runs completed by the batters shall stand, together with any runs for penalties awarded to either side. See Laws 18.6 (Runs awarded for penalties) and 18.8 (Runs scored when a batter is dismissed).

If, however, a striker who has a runner is himself/herself dismissed Run out and runs are completed by the runner and the other batter before the wicket is put down,

- all runs to the batting side from that delivery shall be disallowed.

- the one run penalty for No ball shall stand and 5 run penalties shall be allowed.

- the umpire shall return the non-striker to his/her original end.

Thnx a Lot Buddy
