Yes. In fact, most white tigers give birth to orange tigers 7/8 of the time, and while you may think these orange tigers are normal, they're not. They still have the same birth deficiencies as the white tigers.
Only 1 in 4 tiger cubs from a white tiger bred to an orange tiger carrying the white gene are born white, and 80% of those die from birth defects associated with the inbreeding necessary to cause a white coat.
The ONLY way to produce a tiger or lion with a white coat is through inbreeding brother to sister or father to daughter; generation after generation after generation. The kind of severe inbreeding that is required to produce the mutation of a white coat also causes a number of other defects in these big cats.
The white coat is a double recessive gene so most of the cubs born through this inbreeding have normal coloring but they too suffer the same defects and are referred to in the trade as "throw away tigers."

How do tigers have birth?
Tigers give birth to live cubs after a gestation period of around 93-112 days. The female tiger typically gives birth to a litter of 2-4 cubs. The cubs are born blind and helpless and rely on their mother for care and protection.
How many children does a tiger have?
Tigers typically give birth to a litter of 2-4 cubs, although litters of up to seven cubs have been recorded. The average litter size is around 3 cubs.

Can a white tiger and a normal bangel tiger mate if so what color is there cub?
Heterozygous - White gene carrier Homozygous - No white gene White tigers are not albinos and do not constitute a separate subspecies of their own and can breed with orange ones, although all of the resulting offspring will be heterozygous for the recessive white gene, and their fur will be orange. The only exception would be if the orange parent was itself already a heterozygous tiger, which would give each cub a 50% chance of being either double-recessive white or heterozygous orange. If two heterozygous tigers, or heterozygotes, breed on average 25% of their offspring will be white, 50% will be heterozygous orange (white gene carriers) and 25% will be homozygous orange, with no white genes. In the 1970s a pair of heterozygous orange tigers named Sashi and Ravi produced 13 cubs in Alipore Zoo, of which 3 were white. If two white tigers breed, 100% of their cubs will be homozygous white tigers. A tiger which is homozygous for the white gene may also be heterozygous or homozygous for many different genes. The question of whether a tiger is heterozygous (a heterozygote) or homozygous (a homozygote) depends on the context of which gene is being discussed. Inbreeding promotes homozygosity and has been used as a strategy to produce white tigers. (From Wikipedia)
How many babies can a white tiger have in a month?
White tigers, like other tigers, typically have a litter size ranging from 2 to 4 cubs. The gestation period for tigers is around 3.5 months. So, in a month, a white tiger could potentially give birth to a litter of 2 to 4 cubs.
Do white tigers exist?
White tigers do exist, but are rare because in order to be born they must have a special mix of DNA to give them white fur.
What is the method of reproduction of white tiger?
White tigers reproduce sexually through mating between a male and a female. Female white tigers have a gestation period of about 3.5 months, after which they give birth to a litter of 2-6 cubs. The cubs are cared for by their mother until they are old enough to fend for themselves.
