A pregnancy test?: A woman can take an over-the-counter urine pregnancy test 1 to 2 weeks after ovulation, and should get a positive result if pregnant. If the result is negative, a repeat test can be done 1 week later. The tests are very accurate.

Yes, but...: I assume you mean a pregnancy test. For a home pregnancy test to become positive, the fertilized egg must implant into the uterus, and the new placenta will release a hormone called hcg. This is what is tested for in the urine. Only tiny amounts are needed to make the pregnancy test positive, but this is most reliable a week or more after the first missed period.
