Yes different colors can absorb heat differently. You can tell that darker colors absorb more heat than lighter colors because the light reflects off of the light colors.
When a substance appears of a certain color, it is actually absorbing all the wave lengths of the light spectrum falling on it and reflecting only one wave length peculiar to that color. So, the different colors absorb different wave lengths and hence, different amounts of heat energy.
