No, they aren't. In real life, Polar bears and brown bears share a genus. Same happens between horses and zebras. There is no reason a creature that's extremely similar to another one should be reclassified as a new genus for being another color. And the fact that you said that is odd, because not long ago you tried to reclassify my Thunder Bee, which is yellow and orange, to the same genus as the Doop, which is blue.

Coloration might divide some taxons. But it can't merge them. You can't classify two creatures that are drastically different in terms of morphology in the same genus just for sharing ONE morphological feature plus being purple.
