No Motrin or ibuprofen in an anti-inflammatory medication does not contain Aspirin. Aspirin does thin blood.

Does acetaminophen thin blood?

I found this: Ibuprofen does not thin the blood like aspirin does. At higher doses of ibuprofen(ie. 800 mg three times a day) there can be a potential for thinning of the blood but it is a "reversible" effect where as aspirin has an "irreversible" effect. If you are only taking over the counter doses once or twice a day there is probably no clinically significant thinning. Aspirin can be taken daily to help protect the heart by preventing blood clots. Ibuprofen does not have the same effects. ---- Fresh evidence adds to suspicions that ibuprofen could be dangerous for most heart patients because it can block the blood-thinning benefits of aspirin. Scientists believe ibuprofen clogs a channel inside a clotting protein that aspirin acts on. Aspirin gets stuck behind the ibuprofen and cannot get to where it is supposed to go to thin the blood.
