If the horn happened before the foul, then it almost definitely happened before the shot as well, so you really have no shot or foul.
It's possible, but unlikely, that the foul occurred in that sliver of time that would have the clock actually running out.

Don't confuse NFHS and NCAA rules!
If this is an NCAA game with a monitor, the official will restore the time from when the contact occurred. However, under NFHS rules the official can only restore what was seen once the whistle blows and the timer should by rule have stopped the clock.
So if the calling official is slow on the whistle, there is a high probability that the period will end with the FTs.
