Sometimes. But if he were a Roman citizen or freedman he could not be crucified. Crucifixion was for slaves who committed heinous crimes. If the thief were a slave, yes crucifixion was in order, but most thieves, even non-citizens, were punished with flogging or exile, depending on his social status.
