A: I hope I'm not crashing the party.
B: Are you kidding?

I've head this conversation in a TV drama or something.
The speakers were hugging after these phrases. (A form of greeting???)
What does 'crash the party' mean?

To crash a party is to attend without an invitation.  Your conversation can be paraphrased this way:

A:  I hope I'm welcome at this party.
B:  Of course!
