Technically speaking, Weiss isn't what modern people would call a tsundere. A tsundere is defined as 'an outwardly violent character who 'runs hot and cold', alternating between two distinct moods - tsuntsun (aloof/irritable) and deredere (awkward/lovestruck).' When people say tsundere, they think of people like Asuka from Evangelion or Rin from the Fate series. However, that's only what we'd call a Modern Tsundere. The Classic Tsundere is defined as 'a character who begins with a harsh outgoing personality, but slowly reveals a soft and vulnerable interior over time'. In this sense, Weiss could be considered a tsundere. She started out being irritable and in some cases, mean-spirited, but over time we saw her softer, more vulnerable inner thoughts start to shine through. So, yes, Weiss could be considered a tsundere - a Type B or 'Sweet' tsundere to be specific, since it's her softer and kinder side we see most often.
