Yes. Like all cold blooded creatures, crocodiles depend on their environment for warmth, and are thus very sensitive to cold water.

Crocodiles can be sensitive to cold water because they are ectothermic, meaning they rely on external sources of heat to regulate their body temperature. Cold water can slow down their metabolism, making them sluggish and less active. In extreme cold conditions, crocodiles may become immobile or even die.
