So, yes entirely possible to have a set of authentic Warrior Artifact armor.
The set that Curious George wears is actually (he admits it himself in one of the quests) a replica and holds no magic. The magic of the armor focuses the Warrior wearing it and enhances their abilities. But only a true Warrior can wear the armor and conquer the Inner Beast without the Beast taking over and enthralling him/her.
One hundred years ago, during the Autumn War, there were many many Warriors roaming around Eorzea. Afterwards, during the relative peace time that settled, there was little need of "Warriors" so what few were left returned to their native homelands of Abalathia's Spine. The set the Player Character obtains in the Warrior storyline is likely one of many lost to the decades. (Probably more common to find the further north you travel.) How you choose to find the set is up to you, but just know lore-wise it is possible.
Hope this helps! ^^
