No, there were no Greeks up in Latinum at the time Rome was emerging. The Greeks were down south around the heel and sole of the Italian peninsula's "boot" and on Sicily. The Romans conquered the Latinii who where the people in Latinum, the section of the country where Rome is located. They also had to deal with the Etruscans in and around Latinum.
Not that historians know of. Latinum was the area where Rome was located. The surrounding people were called Latinii. Rome fought the Latinii for dominance in their area, not the Greeks. There were Greeks in Italy at that time but they were way at the botton of the Italian "boot".
