I have Norton and facial recognition on my phone. Some of my notes are locked. If I get hacked or click on something I thought came from a friend can they open these notes?

No. Locked Notes are encrypted and they would need the password used to lock them. And, unless your iPhone is jailbroken, it cannot be hacked. However, your Apple ID can be compromised, which would allow someone access to your iCloud account if you are using it to store Notes. Just make sure you have a strong password on your Apple ID account, and 2 Factor Authentication.
