Yes, colour and color mean exactly the same thing. Traditionally, the difference is that colour is the British spelling and color is the American spelling. This discrepancy came about when Noah Webster publicized his American Dictionary in the early 1800s and altered the spelling of words like favour, honour, colour, and neighbour so the u was not included, mainly for reasons of strong nationalism.

Both spellings are acceptable.
