Yes - I'm both female and autistic. Autism was once thought to only effect males but our understanding of autism grows we're realising that females can be autistic too. Although there remains higher numbers of autism in men, presumably associated with Fragile X syndrome which primarily effects males, researchers believe there's less of a gap between the sexes as first thought. Autism effects females differently, we can also often hide our autism better - for example males are expected to be more confident so if their autism effects that they may stand out as different, where as females are expected to be more reserved so their autism may be hidden as females are acting as expected socially.
There is a particular group of people that have autism: Autistic people! Autism does tend to be more commonly found in males, however often autism symptoms show differently in females and females are better at hiding their symptoms so it may be that autism is just underdiagnosed in females.

We don't know for sure that they are. It is a common belief that females are as likely to be autistic as males but because of our limited understanding of how it manifests in females we can miss diagnose autistic females or they can go without any support. It may be figures between males and females on the spectrum will level out as our understanding of autism grows.
