No. While it is possible and even likely that there will be future missions to the moon, they will not be Apollo missions.

How did the astronauts feel when people said they faked the landing on the moon?

You can imagine that they would not be happy about it. They trained for years, put their lives on the line (and some DID die) trying to achieve this goal. These were military men who put a lot of emphasis on HONOR. To have seemingly dishonorable, amoral people who have achieved little in their lives accuse them of questionable behavior, is more than an affront to their character. We live in a society where ANYONE has the right to say or question anyone; the astronauts acknowledge this, even fought to protect this right, but they don't always have to like it.

No, Apollo 8 was the first manned spacecraft to orbit the moon, but it did not land.

At the time that the Apollo missions began Dr. Abe Silversein was the Director of Space Flight Programs. He had chosen the name Apollo because of a book on mythology and had decided that "Apollo riding his chariot across the sun was appropriate to the grand scale of the proposed program."
