Answer: no. Albinism is caused by a recessive gene, meaning an animal must carry 2 copies of the gene, one from each parent, in order to express the color (or rather, lack there of). One copy of the gene has no effect on coat color. Because of this, 2 albinos bred together will always produce an albino.*** this simply does not happen in horses because no white horse's coat is caused by a recessive gene, and none of these white horses breed true as an albino would.

Answer: No, albino requires two recessive genes to show; thus two albino horses would produce an albino foal every time. White horses do not always bred true, and most "albino horses are actually creamellos or grays.
