No, Anastasia was killed along with her family on the night of July 17, 1918 on orders from the Bolsheviks. Rumors of her being alive arose when graves of the rest of the family were found, minus the bodies of Anastasia and her brother Alexis. Later, a second grave was find a small ways away from the larger grave containing two bodies, which, through DNA testing, were proved to be Anastasia and Alexis's bodies. Also, before the graves were even discovered, people claimed to be Anastasia in hopes of inheriting the rumored Romanov fortune.
