It does happen but it is quite rare.
More often you have private screenings with a selected audience after the movie and changes are made enforced upon the director but sometimes the screenplay is pre-screened (a "Leica" type reel comprising rough story boards and visuals and possibly some sound) for audience feedback. Leica reels are more common to animation movies but the technique is quite old.
A film like 300 would have been easy to do (if the directors wished) as the images had already been done in graphic comic format.
