No,
but if someone else sneezes near you without covering their mouth and nose, you may catch it from their sneeze. Or if you are sneezing you could give it to others the same way.
Flu viruses spread through respiratory droplets that are released with coughs and sneezes, so always cover your mouth and nose with a tissue when coughing and sneezing and then throw the tissue away.
