Hello na'am and welcome.
There do usually exist chances of it moving, but it takes time (for example from one trimester to the other), but you do not have as much time for any real changes now so I would think you would have to discuss alternate options with your doctor depeneding on the degree of placenta previa (like a cesarean).
Hope this helps.
Best wishes.
