no i really dont' think so. you can however get a very sore throat, which under poor hygine standards (nothing anyone of us could even come close to, it would have to be down right out never doing anything "clean") could get infected... but i've done quite a bit of coughing (way i see it, if you aren't coughing your ass off, you didn't take a big enough of a hit) and i'm fine...

now this is somethign you ahve to watch out for and it's never pleasent for those with faint stomachs i'd suggest not reading...

one time i smoked my first blunt ina black n' mild (had smoked plenty of blunts before hand, just my first one rolled in a black n mild) i found out that i had some type of "allergic reaction" (i put it in quotations cuz i don't think there is actually something to be allergic to that's in black n milds that isn't in alot of other cigars if not all) ... i took one or two hits and got severely sick at my stomach and started fuckin puking like crazy, when i was in the bathroom atleast.. i was down on my knees puking (of course as weed usualy does to me my sinuses were clogged up at the time) and i kept fuckin puking and puking.. i couldn't stop it, and it never paused in between hurls enough for me to breathe.. i spent about a minute puking into the toilet, the whole time never being able to take even a short breath.. i think i came really close to passing out before it stopped, dunno how this is really relevant, just thought i'd share... it's fun to gross ppl out sometimes.
