Brief Answer:
No this is not possible

Detailed Answer:
Hi

Thanks for your query.

Marijuana components including THC can be transmitted through only air/smoke. It can't be transmitted via sexual intercourse. There is no documented case like that.

As long as you have not smoked marijuana, you will not test positive for it.
