not as far as I know. if you fail the survival you will get the xp you earned in the mission (no bonus from completion), but no mods and stuff.

for defence the game 'saves' every 5 waves I think, so when you fail on wave 9, you get all the loot you found up till wave 5 (at least, I think it's like that, haven't checked it in detail myself)
