Nope, she was not. As I said, for something to exist in a fictional story, there has to be some kind of written information about it. If it's just in the authors head, it's not part of the fictional reality. Of course Kaguya is real now, but when we go back in time to when Gaara fought Naruto, Kaguya wasn't real. Heck, even Hagoromo wasn't real back then, because at that point in time, Kishimoto didn't think of him. Hence he didn't exist.

Another way to look at it: You should be imprisoned, because you are a murderer. I didn't saw you murder someone, you say? Oh, but that doesn't mean you haven't, hm?
