Yes. The surface of Mars is littered with craters from such impacts. In fact, every planet in the solar system has been hit by a comet... not just once, but many, many times!

Has a Comet Ever Hit?

There is no record of a comet directly hitting Earth in recorded history. Comets are typically small icy bodies that mostly burn up upon entering the Earth's atmosphere due to friction with the air. However, they can cause spectacular meteor showers when their debris interacts with Earth's atmosphere.

Does mars have any comets?

A comet is a small solar system body that orbits the Sun. When close enough to the Sun, a comet exhibits a visible coma (fuzzy "atmosphere"), and sometimes a tail, both because of the effects of solar radiation upon the comet's nucleus . Comet nuclei are themselves loose collections of ice, dust and small rocky particles, ranging from a few kilometers to tens of kilometers across. So no Mars doesn't have a comet it does have a moon tho.
