I just finished reading The True History of the Conquest of New Spain by Bernal Diaz del Castillo. This book was a 1st hand account of the conquest of Mexicali (Aztecs).

According to the book, the Aztecs and the other local nations in Mexico at that time had no problem killing horses during combat.
