Yes. The earliest sources of the Robin Hood legend are ballads dating before 1450. In one of them King Edward comes to Yorkshire and makes Robin Hood one of his yeomen.

Is Robin Hood in the time of the French Revolution?

No, the legend of Robin Hood goes back at least to the 1400's. Think about it, why would he be using a bow and arrow when the Brown Bess musket was readily available during the French Revolution. Some reference in that legend also speaks about Richard the Lionheart, which would put it into the time frame of the Third Crusade (1189 to 1192). Ballads do not require or mandate a specific time frame of course, it is only the lesson that matters.
