I would doubt it as you would have already ovulated around 12-15 days after your last period.  However - don't take my  word for it!
Do a test and next time use morning after contraception. It can be taken up to 72 hours after unprotected sex.
YES Get a test now. What you have heard is that sperm can live for 3 days before they die. It only takes a few minutes for an active one to fertilise an egg.

Makosi,

Take the test.

People do get their period sometimes while they're pregnant, so I could take a pregnancy test asap
sorry, *I WOULD take a pregnancy test asap
Sorry to butt in, but it would be far too early to take a pregnancy test.  Even if sperm did reach an egg, (which is possible, but quite rare at this point in your cycle) it takes a few days for it to implant and even then a couple of weeks for the hormone levels to increase to a level that would be detected by the off-the-shelf pregnancy tests.  Even the First Response ones which say that you can test before your period is due requires a reasonable level of hormones, which would not be present at this early stage.  You’re going to have to wait another couple of weeks before any pregnancy test to give you a correct result.
