Sure, it will. Magnesium is a very active metal and reacts with all acids to liberate hydrogen gas.
In general, acids react with metals in a replacement reaction, since metals can replace the hydrogen component of the acid. The more electropositive the metal is, and the stronger the acid it, the more energetic the reaction will be, and in the case of magnesium reacting with hydrochloric acid, we have a highly electropositive metal reacting with a very strong acid.
Magnesium is a metal
because strong acids would also dissolve/damage metal parts of the thing you're cleaning so "weaker" acids are used instead.
Magnesium is NOT an acid, it is a metal element.

Yes they are.

The metal "dissolves" vigorously, producing Hydrogen gas which is seen as a fizzing and a magnesium salt is formed also.
