No. First any unemployment claim requires a work history, including amount of wages you were paid. Second, you have to have been a wage earner working for someone else, not the owner and controller of your own income.

How long would you have to work as a temp to quality for unemployment benefits?

Sorry, but you can only collect unemployment benefits if you was hired by a company full time and the company laid you off for no reason. Temps are people who only works at temp agencies or recruiters. They never worked at a company and was never on their payroll so how can they collect. Temps are on-call and only will call the worker if they have work which is occasionally so not qualified.
