Nope.There can even be a dissimilarity of the number amongst the same species at different growth periods. see here http://www.easternct.edu/depts/edu/textbooks/skeleton.html

No. Some mammals have bones that other mammals don't. I'll give some examples. Carnivores such as dogs have a bone in their penis (the os penis). Also, the number of ribs varies from species to species. For example, horses have 18 pairs of ribs, dogs have 13.
