No, their Empire was based on expansion into eastern Europe and Asia. There were no official colonies nor any territories that were once part of the Russian Empire that consider themselves to have been former colonies (they consider themselves to have either been occupied by or incorporated into Russia proper).
However, much of their expansion into Central Asia and development of what would become the "stans" bore much resemblance to what are more openly considered colonial operations (like the British Empire and French Empire). In addition, Russian influence was very strong in the north of Persia, Sino-Mongolia, and north China.
