Only slightly. Salt (sodium chloride) is not soluble in alcohol, but is soluble in water. Nearly all "rubbing alcohol" contains water.

To prove this for yourself, pour a small bowl of rubbing alcohol, then add a teaspoon of salt. It will mostly remain at the bottom of the bowl. Now add water to the bowl, forming a miscible mixture of water and alcohol. After enough water is added, the salt will eventually go into solution in the mixture.
