Yes, Jet A is hydrodesulphurized, crude oil contains between 10,000 PPM (for sweet Texas crude) and 30,000 PPM (for heavy Middle East crude) of sulphur.
The upper limit for sulphur in Jet A is 3,000 PPM of sulphur.
To clarify though, 'kerosene' is a class of fuels, Jet A is a kerosene, but not all kerosene is Jet A.
Just like 100LL is gasoline, but it's very different from what you pour into your vehicle.
