Depends on your criminal history, your reason for the theft and your attitude towards the criminal offense.

Almost certainly. Be aware that a shoplifting conviction means more than a fine and/or jail. It makes you almost unemployable for life, because who would ever hire a thief?
Get a good lawyer.
