Yes.
You can find that in
<coot directory>/share/coot/lib/data/monomers/mon_lib.list
<coot directory>/share/coot/lib/data/monomers/mon_lib.html
These are basically identical to refmac's mon_lib.
The monomer library distributed with Coot *is* the Refmac library.
There are a LOT of monomers in there, so paging through every monomer
one at a time will take forever. Instead, as you say, I would use your
knowledge of things like crystallization condition, protein cofactors,
etc. to make a shorter list of candidates and then examine those
carefully.
Sketcher can search the monomer library. Coot will do so soon too.

Coot will attempt to fit every ligand that you provide into every
"blob" - it provides the best fit for each "blob".
You will have to provide a molecule/coordinates for each potential
ligand (you can do this using libcheck, as you
have discovered).
