No, sometimes they're white, sometimes they're more of an orangey color than red. If you would like to know something really interesting about crabs, their blood is blue. Their blood is blue due to the presence of copper in it.

Crab meat is white. The red on the outside of the cooked meat comes from the shell which turns red when it is cooked.
