No. When children with the same PSLE score compete for a school's last places, MOE decides by citizenship, then by choice order, then by computerised balloting. Your address is not one of them.
In MOE’s words
Computerised balloting takes place only when students vying for the last available vacancies in a school have the same PSLE score, citizenship status and choice order of that school.
