Yes, although they don't look exactly the same as fish scales, if you look closely their bodies are covered in scales and very small fins.

I think we can all agree that shrimp have fins as seen in this picture so the question is do shrimp have scales, so what are scales? I would define scales as a overlapping armor of some kind, so on that definition I believe shrimp have both fins and scales.
