That is a bit more complicated than it seems. In the opening of Act I Scene i, both Gregory and Samson are listed as "of the house of Capulet". They discuss hating the Montagues

and how they will fight them. However, there is no mention that they are related to the Capulets

by blood and are most likely servants since they reference their "master" numerous times. So yes they are on the Capulet "team" but probably not Capulets

themselves.
There is another possible point of confusion however: When Gregory and Sampson are arguing with Abram (assumed to be of the house of Montague) they decide to finally start fighting because Gregory says, "Here comes my master's kinsmen." (I,i,

52) What's confusing is that Benvolio,

Romeo's cousin and of the house of Montague, has just entered. So it seems you have a Capulet claiming one of his master's kinsmen (Benvolio)

is coming so they will have some back up, but Benvolio

would not have fought on their side because he is a Montague.
It can be assumed, however, that Gregory's line actually refers to Tybalt, Juliet's cousin and a Capulet, who enters soon after Benvolio

and that Gregory did not see Benvolio.
