I'm 6 weeks pregnant, can I have sex?

Yes, as long as they are not contraindicated by the doctor due to a risky pregnancy or something similar. In pregnancies that evolve in a normal way, there are no problems in maintaining sexual relations as usual. The fetus does not suffer any damage since it is protected by amniotic fluid and, in addition, the uterus is sealed by the mucous plug.
