Yes: If you are sexually active yes but if not No. Get a pregnancy test, if negative and still no period, repeat it after a week or two.

If you had sex, yes: If you are sexually active and had unprotected sex, especially during the fertile time of your cycle, then you certainly could be pregnant. Check a pregnancy test. Best wishes
