Yes, there were different types of bushrangers. The first group were the convict bolters, who were the escaped convicts who stole in order to survive. The most famous of these was John 'Black' Caesar. Then there were the 'wild colonial boys', the bushrangers before the gold rush, and who were often bd out in the bush, some of free settlers. 'Bold' Jack Donohoe epitomised these bushrangers. After 1851, there were the Goldrush bushrangers, which included Australia's most famous bushrangers, such as Ned Kelly, Frank Gardiner, Ben Hall and Thunderbolt.
