Is it still possible to get a fungus on a newly planted kock out rose?

You can get a fungus disease on a plant at any time whether it be on foliage or on roots.

Spring and late summer-early fall work.for regular spraying. You may go twice a couple months apart to get it under control.

One more thing. I am in zone 8 and when should I prune all of my shrubs including roses?

Well once the leaves come off, but basically any new growth might freeze off so timing a trim to when the temps start trending back up from freezing works for most plants.
