Which, depending on how the dragon is described, sure. If it's built like an elephant or a rhino... but even horses can look behind themselves without needing to turn their bodies.

And I certainly would not describe a horse's neck as "serpentine". And a 'cat-like' dragon? I might not even charge it Move points to spin in place as a part of an attack.
