Yes- but most women will not. You need to ovulate first and that means you need to restart your menstrual cycle. Typically you ovulate about 14 days after the first day of menstruation. (Actually its 14 days before your period starts or would start). So its possible but unlikely you will ovulate in less than two weeks after coming off the pill. Because sperm can survive in the cervix for up to about 5 days after intercourse you could get pregnant from "waiting sperm" once you do ovulate. Sometimes it takes a few months for the cycle to return to normal.
