Yes. Well actually, most image editing apps allow you to use any colour as long as it's "solid", i.e. a single colour and not a graduated fill and that the colour does not appear anywhere in the part of the image that you want to keep opaque.

When you export the image as a gif or png, you tell the application which colour you want to make transparant. The "solid" colour is removed leaving you with the image you want to keep on a transparent background.
