There are two possible answers to this question depending on what was meant by 'wild'.
1. Palomino is a color (not a breed in any way, shape or form.) and in no way affects a horses behavior. Just because a horse is a certain color does not mean it's going to be stubborn, wild, or fast. These old analogies are actually old wives tales.
2. Palomino is caused by one copy of the cream gene acting on a red (chestnut or sorrel) horse. Therefore if the wild or feral horse population carries cream, then yes there will be wild/ feral palomino horses.
