Yes and no. Mare's milk isn't considered the type of milk that could be distributed to the human population. However, historically, like in the days of the Old West, when a woman couldn't give enough breast milk to feed her newborn and the family owned no milk cow, they would use a mare that they owned that had just recently foaled to milk out and give milk to the baby. In today's world, chances of this happening is just about nil, except in possibly more poorer countries.

Can horses drink skimmed milk for the gut?
Adult horses are not designed to drink milk and the enzymatic components of milk (skim or otherwise) do not particularly lend themselves to improving the digestive capabilities of horses. Horses are designed to digest fiber into volatile fatty acids in the large intestine as their primary source of energy. A secondary, less recommended, energy source is grain. Neither grain nor hay digestion would be much improved by feeding milk.
