The molten salt will be quite radioactive, yes. It is part of the radioactive waste generated by a molten salt reactor. Some types of molten salt reactors do not have this problem, but I don't think they are the most practical.
The metal containing the molten salts might become somewhat radioactive too.
All in all, this is still comparable in amount of waste to water cooled reactors.
