Yep.

No,

Never.
There was a monochrome C41-APS available from Kodak, but never a plain
bw film like Tmax or APX.
Re your original problem - you may develop the film in Rodinal or any
other ordinary bw film. Just remember that the C41-Dev is a pretty
strong formulation in combination with high temperature - to emulate
that you´ll need a rather long dev time (or concentration of
developer).
You pretty much can´t overdevelop the C41 film.
Last year I developed a few rolls of noname C41 films with Rodinal -
the final aim was to redevelop those rolls in color by bleaching
(rehalogenating) the films and developing, bleachfixing them in
C41-chemistry afterwards. It worked fine - the color couplers are
still functional after bw development and weeks of hanging in the
cabinet....
Just don´t expect a fine quality from those films - grain will be on
the coarse side, contrast is a gamble, the film mask a pain to deal
with.
