Mars rocks that might contain fossils are primarily sedimentary rocks, particularly those formed in ancient lakes or river environments, as these settings are more conducive to preserving biological material. Additionally, rocks that exhibit signs of past water activity, such as mudstones or sandstones, are potential candidates for containing fossils. Any organic material or microbial life forms that may have existed in Mars' past would likely be found in these types of geological formations. However, no definitive fossil evidence has been discovered on Mars to date.
Maybe. It depends on what kind of rock it is. If its a sedimentary rock and it's pretty old, then it will probably have some fossils in it. If its igneous the chances are not very likely i'd say.
Igneous rocks.
Rocks, sediment, and soil contain different kinds of fossils, which are the preserved remains or traces of ancient plants and animals. Fossilized bones, shells, imprints, and tracks can all be found in various types of sedimentary rocks.
Sedimentary rocks contain particles of minerals, organic material, and fragments of pre-existing rocks, which have been compacted and cemented together over time. These rocks often include fossils and can be categorized into three main types: clastic, chemical, and organic sedimentary rocks.

Igneous rocks and most metamorphic rocks, of an igneous origin.
Most fossils are preserved in sedimentary rocks.
