The answer is no, but if you take an imaginative view of color charge in quarks then yes!
Why is the answer no?
Because color is photons in a narrow range of wavelengths/energies visible to the human eye. Atoms have electrons that can emit and absorb photons under certain circumstances, but don't have any intrinsic color themselves.
Color charge is a property of quarks thats trinary in nature, and is usually described in terms of red, green, and blue, since color is a useful analogy to how it functions. Despite the name, colored light and color charge are not actually related outside of the analogy.
So atoms don’t have color because some photons have wavelengths outside of the visible range? That’s irrelevant and in no way justifies the claim
