No, for several reasons:
1) Lack of pigmentation makes albinos of many species more vulnerable to predation.
2) Albinos appear to have weakened immune systems, in general.
3) Albinos are more vulnerable to the negative effects of UV rays.
4) Albinos are always a recessive genotype. The fact that albinism appears in the phenotype usually implies that the creature is the result of inbreeding, or at least the mating of 2 very homozygous-recessive parents. As such, the albino individual is more likely to show many homozygous recessive traits in its phenotype, and these traits are usually weaker...so the individual has a much reduced survival rate.

Can albinos have freckles?
Many people would argue that a true albino cannot have freckles because a freckle is defined as a clump of dark pigment in the skin. Albinism is defined as a living being having no pigment or capability of producing pigment, thus; albinos dont have freckles. But some albinos HAVE gotten freckles from sun exposure so I guess it is possible. Sorry for making the explanantion so long(:

Why are eye colors only green brown and blue?
The main reason for the common occurrence of green, brown, and blue eye colors is due to genetics. These colors are produced by different amounts and types of pigmentation in the irises. There are also other less common eye colors, such as hazel and gray, that result from variations in pigmentation levels within the iris.
Do albinos have white pubic hair?
