No. Your private key will have only one address.
I think one private key has 3 address: Legacy, segwit and native segwit
When you input your private key on electrum should add code:
Code:
p2pkh:KxZcY47uGp9a...        -> 1DckmggQM...
p2wpkh-p2sh:KxZcY47uGp9a... -> 3NhNeZQXF...
p2wpkh:KxZcY47uGp9a...      -> bc1q3fjfk...

In this case OP private key: Private key WIF

Example of a private key: 5Kb8kLf9zgWQnogidDA76MzPL6TsZZY36hWXMssSzNydYXYB9KF
your private key should use Private Key WIF Compressed with letter L or K to making segwit or native segwit when use electrum.

Compressing use tool: bitaddress.org
