If a plant is showing definite signs of chlorosis then possibly but most of the time overfeeding a plant is as bad as not feeding it at all. In some cases worse.
I have no idea what "rite aid" is so I cannot begin to guess whether it is in a form that is usable for a plant. I would guess not.
Here is a picture of a plant suffering iron deficiency.

No. Human vitamin/supplements are not beneficial to plants. Epsom salts sprinkled on the dirt, rusty nails placed in the soil will add minerals to the medium and Are beneficial to plants.

Iron is for blood. I doubt it would do much good. Iron is poisonous for children, possibly plants, too.
