Brief Answer:
Yes, it can.

Detailed Answer:
Hi.
Thanks for your query, albeit short and specific.

Read and understood that you had a car accident with multiple bruising and have chills, body ache, feeling of lightheaded, weakness and fever.

Yes, it certainly can and the reasons can be tissue trauma itself, the reaction to the traumatized tissues and the infection one gets.

I hope this answers your query.
