Possible: Cervical mucus starts to form a few days before ovulation. It has been shown that sperm can live up to a week in good mucus. So having sex 3 days before ovulation could still result in a pregnancy. Once ovulation has occurred the egg only lasts for 12 hours. So unprotected sex after ovulation is much less likely to result in pregnancy.
