How big is the plant now???
And what kind was it, one of those big watermelon's or like a baby~mini one???
You can always hope and stay positive
about it..
If it was seeded and sprouted early enough,
I don't see why not that you couldn't get one...
And maybe if you see a few female flowers,
you can leave at least like 3 and make sure those one's ripen fully...
And sometimes, things in containers ripen faster..and if they were the mini's...
with any luck.. you should be able to...

I don't see why not, if the pot is large enough. And if you got fruit, you could prop the melons on a nearby table....
What fun - and I hope it works for ya !

yes you can, just make sure that once the flowers have pollinated and the fruit is growing larger then a golfball, to have sunshine one them!! They LOVE the sun and will grow fast and big in the suns ray!! Also the watermelon plants take a good DEEP watering each day, I keep my soil moist in the heat we have(high 90's to over 100), dont SOAK it all at once, a slow drizzle for about 5 minutes twice a day should do the job. Good luck!!
