It's happened plenty of times, as has been mentioned.Kerry Wood had a shot at 5 K's in an inning in 2002. Two runners got on base after a third strike was not caught, however he got one out on a ball put in play (I think it was a ground out).

Considering a full inning contains six putouts, sure, it's happened somewhere in the past.But you probably mean a single, offensive half-inning. The major league record is four strikeouts. The minor league record is five; the last time I know of it happening was in the early 90s by Kelly Wunsch. Knuckleballer, he; well-established as the pitcher type of choice to get those dropped third strikes often.
i don't think 5 has ever happened in the majors. i've had it happen in rec. ball once though.
