Brief Answer:
Not possible if not pregnant.

Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.
If the lady is pregnant, DNA testing can be done on the fetus to know who was the father.
If the lady is not pregnant, no DNA test can reveal who had sex with her 3 weeks back.
All the best.
Please feel free to discuss further.
