Not exactly. Red giants become white dwarf stars.
It is the red supergiants that can become supernovas.
After a red giant phase, a star will undergo further evolutionary stages depending on its mass. A low-mass star like the Sun will evolve into a planetary nebula and then eventually into a white dwarf. A high-mass star will undergo a supernova explosion, leading to the formation of a neutron star or black hole.
Technically the explosion of a Red giant is not called a Supernova as the mass of the star is not great enough. However the explosion from a Red Super Giant can be called a supernova. A normal Red giant doesn't actually explode, the core just collapses again to cause a white dwarf and the outer layers are ejected to form planetary Nebulae.
I am pretty sure it becomes a giant if I'm not mistaken.
The explosion of a red giant is called a supernova. It would be quite spectacular to watch!

The explosion of a red giant star is known as a supernova. During this event, the outer layers of the star are ejected into space at incredible speeds, releasing enormous amounts of energy and radiation. Supernovae are some of the most powerful and brightest events in the universe.
Yes, a red giant star can undergo a supernova explosion at the end of its life cycle. This occurs when the star has exhausted its nuclear fuel and can no longer support itself against gravity, leading to a dramatic collapse and subsequent explosion.

A blue giant star goes through multiple stages during its life cycle: formation from a collapsing nebula, main sequence where it fuses hydrogen into helium, red giant phase where it expands and fuses heavier elements, and finally, depending on its mass, it may end as a supernova or a black hole.
After the supernova of a red giant, remnants such as a neutron star or a black hole can form, depending on the mass of the original star. If the star was especially massive, it may also result in a supermassive black hole or a hypernova explosion.

The biggest star - VY Canis Majoris IS in a red supergiant phase and will explode as a massive supernova.
