Kind of, yes. X-rays do interact with the visual system and cause perceivable effects especially with dark-adapted eyes. It's not like seeing actual colours, though and more of an added effect.

UV and EMF radiation are further causes of these "warmth" effects. UV in particular is pretty bad and yes, you could actually get a tan from sitting in front of a (cheap) colour CRT monitor all day :)
