Yes, 猛然 (měngrán) is commonly used in spoken Chinese. It is an adverb meaning "suddenly" or "abruptly". It is often used to describe a sudden change in a situation or a sudden realization. For example, 她猛然发现自己错了 (Tā měngrán fāxiàn zìjǐ cuòle; She suddenly realized she was wrong).

猛然, 忽然 and 突然 are all translated to "suddenly" in English and in quite a lot of cases these three are interchangeable.
1. 猛然 describes physical movements or motions. 猛然 is also higher in degrees compared to 忽然 and 突然, meaning that when we use 猛然, the action happens in a more violent, faster manner.
2. 突然 and 忽然 are largely interchangeable.
