Totally normal 
Even the non-albino ones will tend to show a little bit of coloring there due to the thinner skin in that region. It's like how you can see the veins in the underside of a really pale person's wrist or inner elbow.

Yes, its totally normal for an albino pleco to have that purple coloration.
