No, that's impossible. there are very few human infections that have anything to do with horses. very very rare cases of brucellosis, Q fever (if you help a horse give birth), and rhodococcus equi infection. this latter causes pneumonia in VERY immune suppressed individuals (like advanced AIDS) who inhale aerosolized germs from soil that contains horse maure. But it is not at all related to the TB germ. I think your friend has been badly misinformed
