No, they didn't. The Czar was overthrown, actually forced to abdicate, by the workers, soldiers and peasants who revolted in Petrograd (St. Petersburg) in 1917.

Ivan the Great thought his Russian Empire was the continuation of the Byzantine or Roman Empire. This was because he married a niece of the last emperor of the Byzantine Empire and so considered himself to be a continuation of that line. His belief caused him to refer to himself as Czar (Russian for Caesar). His grandson Ivan IV (the Terrible) had himself crowned as Czar thereby making the title formal.
Ivan the Terrible (this is his name in English; I believe a closer translation is Ivan the Fearsome) was a czar of Russia, where he lived.
