Yes, but that'd be so for any slave or property. If the question was whether only the true owner can do anything he wants to the property (or, alternatively, whether the offense is to the property or to the property owner), then sure, robots would be Subjugated - but that's not the case according to Kromm's earlier post. Instead, anyone can do anything they like to it - which means that it'd be perfectly legal for someone to come up to a robot with Social Stigma (Subjugated) and blow it up, reprogram it to follow them instead of its original master, etc., etc.
