We can never know for certain as that is not the case.

However had the Nazies been able to continue fighting or had the bombs been ready before the Nazi surrender, I believe there is a good chance the first atomic bomb would have been dropped in Germany instead of Japan. But this is also not the case as they surrendered before the atomic bomb was available.

Counterfactual History can be fun to think about, but rapidly disintegrates into uncontrolled and irrational speculation.
