Yes, parrots can see in color. In fact, parrots can see more colors than humans can, because a parrot's eyes can see some parts of the ultraviolet end of the spectrum (which humans can only see with specialized detection equipment).

Many birds are actually capable of seeing ultra violet colors and other colors that we cannot make out, in the wild these colors can be used to attract mates, without attracting attention from other animals.

Parrots like most other birds have wonderful eyesight. They need it to locate food from high up in the air.

Parrots get their colors from pigments in their feathers, and from the structure of the feathers. The three main pigments are yellow, red, and black.
