if you are not ovulating then not a chance though it is not guaranteed that you did not ovulate unless you know when you ovulate if you are regular.

i was definitely ovulating about 2 weeks ago as i had all the discharge for about 3 days. my cycle is normally about 30-33 days.was just worried as hubby actually came and a friend said the sperm can take a few days to travel but surely that period is already on its way???!!! i hope so!

if you know you ovulated several weeks ago then i would say you are ok. yes sperm can live up to 5 days depending on the condition of your uterus but the egg only lives for 24 hours so it is probably dead on its way out.
