Nope. Charles became king the instant his mum snuffed it. If the coronation never takes place, Charles is still king.
Not that people falling over wouldn't make for a more watchable coronation ceremony...

Ok, but what is the point of coronation then?
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"
