Yes. There have been at least 20 attempts at field-goal attempts after fair catches in NFL regular season games since 1933. Two of the attempts occurred in the 2008 season, on November 23, 2008 by Neil Rackers of the Cardinal against the New York Giants and on December 28, 2008 by Mason Crosby of the Packers against the Detroit Lions. Both attempts were unsuccessful. A very detailed discussion of this kind of kick can be found on Wikipedia at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fair_catch_kick .
