Possibly, but it would join other false conjectures such as Euler's sum of powers conjecture - posed in 1769 and no counterexample found until 1966. There's only been three primitive counterexamples found so far.
(I got that from https://math.stackexchange.com/questions/514/conjectures-that-have-been-disproved-with-extremely-large-counterexamples https://math.stackexchange.com/questions/514/conjectures-tha... which features some other false conjectures that may be of interest to you)
