Do Dendrites release neurotransmitters into the extracellular space during nerve impulse transmissions?

Receive, fundamentally, but then subsequently release when its job is done. The axon releases neurotransmitters into the synaptic cleft, where they diffuse across and fit into the receptor sites on ligand-gated ion pores located on the dendrites, where they act to open the ion pores so as to initiate the propagation of the neural signal along the dendrite ; however, those same receptor sites subsequently do release the neurotransmitters, so they can be re-absorbed and re-used by the axon terminals to pass neural signals to the dendrite as subsequent action potentials reach the ends of the axons.
