Yes if you buy now you can still receive the dividend, If you sell your shares on or after tomorrow the ex dividend date, you will still receive the dividend.

Kind of a bit confused about the selling leading up to the ex-dividend date, usually buying, then selling on or after the ex-dividend date.
