Respected Anonymous;
Yes, there are many a reference about yoga in Sri Guru Granth Sahib Bani. One of them is on page 730 of Sri Guru Granth Sahib.
ਸੂਹੀ ਮਹਲਾ ੧ ਘਰੁ ੭
ੴ ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਪ੍ਰਸਾਦਿ ॥
ਜੋਗੁ ਨ ਖਿੰਥਾ ਜੋਗੁ ਨ ਡੰਡੈ ਜੋਗੁ ਨ ਭਸਮ ਚੜਾਈਐ ॥
ਜੋਗੁ ਨ ਮੁੰਦੀ ਮੂੰਡਿ ਮੁਡਾਇਐ ਜੋਗੁ ਨ ਸਿੰਙੀ ਵਾਈਐ ॥
ਅੰਜਨ ਮਾਹਿ ਨਿਰੰਜਨਿ ਰਹੀਐ ਜੋਗ ਜੁਗਤਿ ਇਵ ਪਾਈਐ ॥੧॥
The spirit of the message is that yoga, union with the Creator, is not in outer wear and what one carries in hand. The true yoga, union with the Creator, is while living among the society and still staying unattached to it.
Hope this helps.
