there are three components of blood haemoglobin, lymph and plasma. Lymph is a colourless fluid containing WBC's which bathes the tissues. Plasma is a colourless fluid which contains flat globules and proteins.No we cannot call plasma as blood.If there would not have been plasma blood wouldn't have flowed so vigorously and we cannot call plasma as blood due to the unpresence of haemoglobin which contains the main thing in it Oxygen.
