Will GFCI work properly if 240 volt split into one 3 wire 120 volt circuit?
yes
How do you wire a 120 volt gfci into a 240 volt three wire?
You can't. The 120 volt GFCI is probably just a 2-wire (hot, neutral and ground) You would have to run a new 3-wire (2 hots, neutral and ground). The two hots are how you get the 240 volts (120+120=240). Also you must make sure the wire is gauged properly. #10 wire for 30 amps, #12 wire for 20 amps, etc.
Are Ground fault circuit interrupter GFCI devices available for use on 240 volt 480 volt and 600 volt circuits?

Only if the cable going to your well pump is a three wire. The third wire could carry the neutral and you will have 120 volts from either 240 leg to the neutral.
How many volts does a house run on?
120 volts and 240 volts. Typically 240 volts is supplied to the house electrical service entrance. It is split into it's 120 volt components via two buss bars. Hooking a circuit up to just one bar yields 120 volts. Hooking into both gives 240 volts.
