No
Damage shield damage does not count towards your characters threat rating. A good way to test this is put on a DS and aggro a creature such as a skele(one that attacks whoever), if it dies from only damage shield damage (assuming you could get xp from the skele) you will not get xp because none of the damage counted as damage dealt by your character.
Another way to test is to aggro a creature, let the ds deal over half their damage, then have a friend tag the creature. creature should immediately switch targets because their damage produced threat.
