It depends on how long and at what temperature it has been held at. Eggs in less than 40F for an extended period ( more than 7 days) will lose viability at a tremendous rate. It is best to keep the eggs waiting for incubation at +40F for no longer than 7 days and they must also be in a high humidity (50%+) area to ensure viable hatch rate.

Can you hatch a chick using an egg from the refrigerator?

No. The egg must be fertile, and being in the refrigerator for too long will kill any embryos. Eggs that are sold for consumption are never fertile, unless bought locally. Without a rooster the eggs will not be fertile, and batteries do not keep roosters, as roosters are not necessary for a hen to lay eggs.
