I recently signed up for a timeshare but hasn’t paid anything. They gave me 3 mounts to pay the deposit… can I still cancel?

You first need to more specifically define "recently".

The right to rescind (cancel) a timeshare contract is provided by individual state law. Time periods to rescind vary by individual state. In a few states (Massachusetts and two others) the cancellation time period is only 3 days! In Florida and Tennessee, the cancellation time period is 10 days (the longest available). In all other states, the cancellation time period is 5-7 days. The state in which you actually signed the contract is the state whose rescission laws apply to you.

By law, notice of rescission rights must be provided in writing at the time of contract execution. Once the applicable rescission period is over, you are legally bound to the terms and obligations of the contract that you voluntarily signed.
