That really depends.

Contemporary assassins have existed since ancient times and definitely continue to exist now. An assassin can simply be defined as anybody who is paid to kill a highly-ranking individual. In fact, the idea of the assassins from Assassin's Creed had a very strong influence from the Hashshashins. You can read about them here:

However, these contemporary assassins are very different from the assassins in Assassin's Creed. In real life, most assassins are freelancing, paid killers who are not necessarily interested in the politics they're changing. The assassins belonging to the Assassin Order in Assassin's Creed, however, are a fictional organization that sought to bring education, knowledge, and equity to the world. These assassins weren't really just assassins... That is just, more or less, a title for them due to the fact that they often carry out their means through assassinations.

Unfortunately, Orders such as this do exist in real-life. Then again, Assassin's Creed is very much based around conspiracy theories-- many think that an Order like that did and still does exist. You can never know.
