Potentially, yes. Check out the site below. I know any time I use a bleach-based product, I can smell it for hours after I'm done using it. I also feel a burning sensation in my eyes, throat and lungs. I'm overly sensitive to things.

Don't mix chlorine bleach with ammonia. This releases chlorine gas which is poisonous and can chemically eat your lungs and damage them so that medications can't help. Even if you don't mix it with ammonia, it can still release some chlorine, so leave the window open or the fan on when you are working with bleach.
