There is no book by the name of John in the Old Testament, nor is the name John mentioned in the Old Testament. The name John is a Greek name that comes from a Hebrew name. The Greek is Ἰωάννης which is pronounced ee-o-an'-nace and the Hebrew name it comes from is יוחנן which is pronounced yo-khaw-nawn'. So it is possible that the Hebrew equivalent of the name John does exist in the Old Testament.
