No, however, many do have the capability to become quite large if given proper care. Common goldfish, and those with the normal/natural body type become quite large, but need a large area of water to attain their full potential (a pond or very large aquarium). Fancy varieties such as the fantail, ryukin, moor and those with an egg shaped body tend to be smaller than their more natural counterparts, however their are exceptions to the rule such as "Bruce the oranda" a huge fancy type.
If you want large, happy, healthy goldfish, they do best in a large aquarium for the fancies and an outdoor pond for the hardier normals/comets. 75L(20G) of water is the minimum per adult goldfish. Given these circumstances, the fish will live many years and grow very large.

Tiger is 3 ft long → 2/3 Tiger's length is 2/3 × 3 ft = 2 ft 1 ft = 12 in Kurt is 3 inches less than this → Kurt is 2 ft - 3 in = 1 ft + 1 ft - 3 in = 1 ft + 12 in - 3 in = 1 ft + 9 in = 1 ft 9 in long
Is a 1 gallon tank good enough for 2 around 1 inch long baby comet goldfish?
Comet goldfish need at least 30 gallons each because of the type of fish they are (single tail), the fact that they can grow extremely long, and they produce a lot of waste.A fancy goldfish (fatter with more tails) need 20 gallons for just one fish, so either way, your 1 gallon tank cannot hold any goldfish at all.

Can you mix a female betta with 2 goldfish 1 is about 3 in long the other is about an inch long in a 14 gallon tank?
You cannot mix goldfish and bettas. Personalities aside, Goldfish are coldwater fish and Bettas are tropical.
