YES! There are very few animals that are not carriers of rabies. Raccoon's skunks, cats and dogs are all vectors for the rabies virus. Rabies can be passed from animal to animal through saliva, feces, and flesh wounds. People can also get rabies the same way. Animals often only live a few weeks at most when the contract rabies, so keep your distance from the stray cats until you are sure you have allowed a few weeks time to make sure they don't before interaction, quarantine works best during these few weeks.

Do kittens have rabies?

Not all stray cats have rabies, but some can if they have gotten bit by a different animal, like a squirrel, with rabies and if they haven't gotten their rabies vaccination. If you notice the cat is foaming from the mouth, going up to you unafraid or has unusual behaviors it could mean they have rabies. I hope I helped answer your question!
