Yes! you sure can! Depending on the content of the fingerprint there are a few methods on the market to enhance prints. SPR or Small Particle Reagent can be used when the item is still wet and a print pops up. If you search it you will find that SPR adheres to our fatty acids in the fingerprints we leave. Another method is Physical developer which uses a redox reaction to enhance the print. Kind of like a photographic image.

Highly unlikely for two reasons. (1) Unless the rock is perfectly somooth the rough surface would have very little (or no) surface for the fingerprints to adhere to, and (2) the salt water in the ocean would dissolve the oil of the fingerprints.
