Some chocolate is, some isn't. Generally, higher cacao percentage chocolates will have less sugar. Check the ingredient lists to find how much sugar is in individual chocolates, as it will differ.

Some chocolate has 44% sugar, the other 56% is chocolate, fat, flavorings emulsifier, and a bunch of other stuff (read the label)

Some other chocolate might be 15% sugar and almost nothing else than cocoa and cocoa butter.

You can find 88% and even higher % chocolate in stores.

Cacao beans, while consisting of significant carbohydrates in the form of starch and both soluble and insoluble dietary fibers, are very low in sugar.

Unsweetened, processed chocolate can contain up to 2% of sugar per measure of chocolate. According to Self: Nutrition Data, sugar makes up 24% of the content of Dark Chocolate (also called "bittersweet" chocolate). Cacaoweb notes that bittersweet chocolate can contain anywhere from 13%-45% sugar, and semisweet chocolate and Baking Chocolate 45%-65% sugar.

Cocoa by itself contains no sugar and is actually quite bitter. It's by adding sugar that makes it sweet.

not usually, but it is possible. plain cocoa would be preferred as a chocolate substitute. Chocolate is a mixture of cocoa, sugar, and fat (cocoa butter). You can make a passable substitute by mixing softened or melted butter with equal or nearly equal amounts of cocoa and pulverized (caster) sugar, adjust for taste. If you use hot cocoa mix do not add sugar and add double the mix.
