All spacecraft (from Earth) that have visited Mercury have been robotic. There were no human passengers. The chances are near zero that a stowaway microbe would have survived the long journey.

Does Mercury have any living thing on it?

The surface temperature of Mercury ranges from over 400 degrees F. in the daytime to -200 F. (that's below zero) at night. In addition to that, Mercury is constantly bombarded with hard radiation because of its close proximity to the sun and its lack of a strong magnetic field to deflect it. It would be hard to imagine a place much less hospitable to life.
