Brief Answer:
Very Unlikely.

Detailed Answer:
Dear Friend.
Welcome To HCM. I am Dr Anshul Varshney.
I understand your concern.
Mostly the deodorants are gas based and they evaporate. Even if not, and you touched it to your tongue, it won't harm you.
If you have noticed, when we spray, a large amount we breathe in and also goes into our mouth.
Nothing to worry.
Just wash your mouth properly and gargle.
If you have any further query please ask me.
Stay Healthy.
