I am looking for Geometric Dimensioning & Tolerancing symbols within the excel spreadsheet. Are they available?

Yes, there actually are GD&T symbols in Excel.
Go to Insert, Symbol, select one of the fonts that has GDT in the name
Ex. AIGDT Regular, AMGDT Regular, GDT Regular, GDT_IV25 Regular, etc.
These all have GD&T symbols that you can use.
Hope this helps.
No.
You can only use chars that are within the font table (use the Character Map tool on Windows to view them).
Most fonts support a lot of special chars for mathematical operations and so on, but not for technical drawings.
