No.

In the US, only a few states continue to recognize common law marriage. In those states, the period of co-habitation is normally about 7 years. Additionally, common law marriage does not apply unless the parties hold themselves out as husband and wife. Continuing to refer to him as your boyfriend negates this element.

How long does a 17 year old girl have to live with her boyfriend to be common law married to him?

In the US: 1) most states no longer recognize common-law marriage 2) even in the states that do recognize it, it takes more than merely living together to be common-law married. 3) I don't believe a *minor* can enter into a common-law marriage anyway (but it might depend on the state).
