No. Only seven were brought to Middle-earth.
They were made by Feanor and we know he made at least eight, seven of which were given by the Elves to Amandil, at that time chief of the Faithful, who later passed them on to Elendil who brought them to M-e and of course one other palantir that remained in the Undying Lands - the Master-stone in the Tower of Avallone on Tol Eressea.
As far as Elrond's or Galadriel's skills are concerned, I recommend the essay Osanwé-kenta by Pengolodh that deals with the topic of such powers linked with the power of the spirit.
