yes! For a small example see doc/pic.ms under section 6.8 in
the groff source tree. However only postscript and html devices
honour color at present I believe,

hope this helps

ps. groff.texinfo also covers color in troff (in case you wish to
    define your own colors etc)


#include <pic.ms:6.8>

6.8. Colored Objects

As a GNU extension, three additional modifiers are available to
specify colored objects. outline sets the color of the outline, shaded
the fill color, and color sets both. All three keywords expect a
suffix specifying the color. Example:


                 Figure 6-6: box color "yellow"; arrow color "cyan"; circle 
shaded "green" outline "black";

Alternative spellings are colour, colored, coloured, and outlined.

Currently, color support is not available in TEX mode. Predefined
color names for groff(1) are in the file color.tmac; additional colors
can be defined with the .defcolor request (see the manual page of GNU
troff(1) for more details).
