In markdown mode when I enter `---` (3 dash lines or more), the horizontal
line becomes green.

Would it be possible to obtain the same behavior in `org-mode` where
horizontal lines become colorful?

You could use hi-lock-mode to define your own colouring for such
lines.  But I'm sure those that under font-locking better might be able
to add appropriate rules for this horizontal line construct.

you can add a rule like this in an org-mode hook:

#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :results silent
(font-lock-add-keywords
 nil
 '(("^-\\{5,\\}"  0 '(:foreground "red" :weight bold))))
#+END_SRC

that will make a line starting with at least 5 - be red and bold in color.

Thank you Professor Kitchin. Would something like follows would work?
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp :results silent
(add-hook 'org-mode-hook (lambda () (font-lock-add-keywords
                                     nil
                                     '(("^-\\{5,\\}"  0 '(:foreground "red"
:weight bold))))))
#+END_SRC

This looks correct. Some people prefer to use named functions for this,
so it is easier to remove them, but this works fine.
