There is no fossil evidence of horses with large horns on their foreheads. However, given the nature of a rhinoceros horn (the same substance as your fingernails, which does not fossilize at all) and the (presumed) nature of a unicorn horn, there would have to be very special circumstances to get a verifiable unicorn fossil. So the answer is maybe.

There may have been. The King James Bible records there being unicorns in Job 39:9-12. Most translations say 'wild ox', but as the literal translation of the Hebrew word for unicorn is 'one horn' and oxen have two horns they may not be the same thing. Also, if you read the whole passage, you will see that God is showing Job all the wonders of His creation which Job probably did not understand. In those days, they had subdued the wild ox and did use them to plow the fields, but mythology supports the idea that unicorns were strong and fierce.

No. Unicorns are mythical animals and did not really live. People saw certain fossils that they thought were horns and imagined the unicorn based on that.
