A comet is a small solar system body that orbits the Sun. When close enough to the Sun, a comet exhibits a visible coma (fuzzy "atmosphere"), and sometimes a tail, both because of the effects of solar radiation upon the comet's nucleus . Comet nuclei are themselves loose collections of ice, dust and small rocky particles, ranging from a few kilometers to tens of kilometers across. So no Mars doesn't have a comet it does have a moon tho.

Does most comets have a circular orbit that keeps them in the space between mars and Jupiter?

No, I've yet to find a single comet with a circular orbit. All I've researched have elliptical orbits, and the apogee of that orbit, the point furthest from the Sun, takes them to the Oort Cloud or beyond.
