No, the regular Applecare will not. Applecare + will cover a couple of accidental damage claims, but, you need to buy this within 60 days of a new purchase from Apple and before you have damage. And yes, even if you buy it,there will be charges.

Sometimes the owner may find belated use of protective case to shield portable Mac
from additional damages (to include some slight impacts) to be useful to limit these.
These cases have advantage in they also hide small imperfections in Mac's metal shell.
