This is assuming that by cryonicists you mean people who work for cryonics institutes or people who support cryonics without having an academic background in cryobiology.

No.

There are cryobiologists who are cryonicists, e,g. the authors of this paper.

The paper does not mention cryonics, nor does the lead author's bio mention being a member of the Society for Cryobiology.
