Are there volcanoes in the desert?

Yes, but they are not commonly found there, as it depends on the region. An example of a volcano that is found in a desert, however, would be the volcano Emi Koussi, found in the Sahara desert.

Yes, there are numerous areas in deserts that contain old lava flows, some of them quite recent. I know of lava flows in the Chihuahuan Desert and the Atacama Desert. I am sure there are others.
