Yes, there are special Christmas stamps where I'm from (Germany).
People give each other calendars, my parents posted me one once when I was in Ireland. It's not generally a thing unless German customs around this have changed since I left five years ago.
Here, in England, people post calendars and there are special stamps. They also post silly numbers of Christmas cards so the Post Office always hires lots of temps to help them cope with mail over Christmas.
