Usually no, though it will depend on if the API call was successful or not. If the API call was successful despite the exception, then a charge could be created. Otherwise, no.

Error handling

Catch and respond to declines, invalid data, network problems, and more.

Obviously if it's a card error, no charge is created, so you can't get the Charge object

If its a card error a charge is created....

#

Hence the example

import stripe, logging

def example_function(**kwargs):
  try:
    stripe.PaymentIntent.create(**kwargs)
  except stripe.error.CardError as e:
    charge = stripe.Charge.retrieve(e.error.payment_intent.latest_charge)
    if charge.outcome.type == 'blocked':
      logging.error("Payment blocked for suspected fraud.")
    elif e.code == 'card_declined':
      logging.error("Payment declined by the issuer.")
    elif e.code == 'expired_card':
      logging.error("Card expired.")
    else:
      logging.error("Other card error.")

I don't think that's the case for Invoice payments, but let me check
