Maybe, maybe not. I am often below 140 at 2 hours and don't go low by hours 3 or 4. It depends on the food and how long it takes to digest. If your meal was white bread and pasta then you might drop lower after 2 hours. If you had protein and fat mixed in, your food and insulin might work well together and you'll be fine.
If you're afraid of dropping too low with insulin still on board you can have a small snack. I do check my IOB and if I feel that my food is running out before the insulin I might have something small, just in case. Not straight carbs, though.
