Yes, it's the engine. What you described is typical of a misfire. How long has it been since the spark plugs were replaced? Have you checked for diagnostic fault codes? Many auto parts stores will do that for you for free. Has the Check Engine light turned on? If it has, most likely there will be a fault code indicating which cylinder is misfiring. If new spark plugs don't solve the problem, you might also suspect one of the ignition coils. You can verify that by swapping the one from the misfiring cylinder with one of the other ones, then erase the fault codes and see if a misfire code sets for the same or different cylinder.
