Yes, a VPN can sometimes contribute to or cause DNS probe errors on Android. This can happen if the VPN's DNS servers are not functioning correctly, if there's a conflict between the VPN's network settings and your device's, or if the VPN connection is unstable. Try disabling the VPN temporarily to see if the error resolves.
