No. Both animals need to carry the Albino gene in order to produce an Albino.
Albino is what we call a recessive gene - both parents need to pass it on to see it in the offspring.
Banana is an incomplete dominant gene and Pinstripe is a dominant gene - only one parent needs to pass them along to see it in the offspring.

Makes sense. So breeding a banna to a pinstripe will create a banana pinstripe combo, right? But if you throw in one that's het for something it won't show up in the off spring unless they both are het for that gene?

Correct. Banana x Pinstripe = 25% chance of producing a Banana Pinstripe combo.
If you're dealing with recessives, both parents need to be at least het to produce the visual recessive offspring you want.

Breeding a banana to a pin will yield 25% chance for normal, pin, banana, and banana pin each.
If both parents are het for albino 25% on average will be albino.
Edit: If you have a banana het albino and a pinstripe het albino that makes the odds a bit more complicated.
Re: how to make banana pinstripes
I have a banana pin and theyre pretty cool!
