No, technically there is no landmass under the arctic ice but there has been a recent discovery of new islands that have been exposed after ice sheets that covered them melted away. One example of this is Warming Island. It was a clear sign of global warming.

No. Unlike Antarctica, the Arctic ice floats on the surface of the ocean.

Yes, and No would be your answers if you mean both the North and South Poles.
The North Pole is covered by only frozen sea water. (actually it seems to me I read somewhere like "Discover" magazine that this last summer the North Pole was actually covered by liquid! sea water for a very few days at the Summer Solstice ( I could be wrong.)
On the other hand the South Pole's snow and ice sits firmly upon "terra firma" (land) many miles thick
