Conceive,yes-but !!: Yes, any sperm that meets up with an egg could result in conception, but that conception would likely shed almost immediately.A true pregnancy does take a few days. You want the sperm to fertilize the egg in the fallopian tube.(takes 2-3 days)You would want the two to form enough cells to attach to a prepared womb.(2-3 days). Many conceptions are lost due to timing issues.
