Can a Knight check 9 pieces in chess?

No. The highest number of pieces a knight can threaten (not "check") is 8. A knight can move up to 8 squares at any given point (sometimes fewer if the knight is near the edge of the board or obstructed by pieces of its own color). The highest number of pieces a knight can threaten just after moving is 7, because one of the eight pieces it can attack is the square it just left, which thus cannot be occupied by an enemy piece. However, the opposing player could then move a piece into that square and so the knight could threaten 8 pieces at once.

How many pieces armor did a knight have?

There is no date for when armour was invented, as there was no individual point where it came into existence. Armour predates written history, in the form of padded garments, leathers and similar equipment for protection. Armour of plates of metal existed in ancient greece and mycenae, mail of iron links existed in Gaul by the time of the Roman Empire's expansion. By the time knights appeared in europe, armour had been in use for many centuries. Likewise, the plate armour of the classic image of a "knight in shining armour" was not a single invention, but a gradual evolution over several centuries, starting with small plates to protect the knee, and slowly progressing to the fully-enclosed harness.
