IMO, with proper care nope!! The real issue with albino's is thermoregulation, if you provide the correct temps.....what's left for the female to regulate?
This coral albino just had her ovulation on the first..

I had one female Albino that bred with no problems. She got pregnant the first time I had a male in with her.
I have another female Albino that's 8 years old and has never gotten pregnant. The males breed her, but she never ovulates. I've tried 6 different males with her, over the last 5 years. Some of the males are/were proven. I know it's not the males, so it must be the female.
So, I'd have to say that some Albino females will breed and become pregnant with no problems, others may not.
