Possible, yes. Correct, too little information to tell. Top tube length comes into play as well as the rest of the frame geometry. Leg length is one factor that affects choice of correct frame size.
That being said, for that leg length, 50cm c-c is probably in the ballpark, whereas a 55 or 56 would almost certainly be too large.

It's the low end of the ballpark, but as long as the top tube isn't on the short side it should be ok. I'm also that size and ride either a 54 c-c or a 56 c-t. -
Thanks for the replies. Unfortunately, two replies and two different answers. Hopefully I'll have some extra cash soon and I can go to a shop and get "fitted." I'm just hoping I'm not going to hear that the bike is WAY too small. Wished I would have insisted on the fit kit before I bought the bike.😎
