Yes, knights' horses, known as destriers, could be clad in decorative armor called barding. This armor served both protective and symbolic purposes, often featuring intricate designs that reflected the knight's status or heraldry. Barding could cover various parts of the horse, including the head, neck, and flanks, to shield it during battle.
