The grouping of political philosophies known as Anarchist are far removed from marxism, mainly because they don't believe the nationalist state is the right means to achieve the socialist ideal, whereas marxism does.
Libertarian Marxism IS a thing, but it's kinda a wierd mix of marxism and anarchism. Like Anarco-communism.
Oh, and there's no such thing as socialist. All socialists are communists, socialism is just the lower stage of communism, or if you're reading lenin, the dictatorship of the proletariat. If you're talking about free healthcare, college etc. that's social democracy where social democrats think that capitalism isn't all that bad, but we can make it better.
