I accidentally listed that someone can claim me as a dependent, and nobody can nor did. Will I still be able to receive the COVID-19 related stimulus of $1,200?

Sorry no, when you checked someone else can claim you, that means you are a dependent.  Dependents do not qualify for the stimulus money.  You should amend your return.  Amended returns must be mailed.
