Sure.

"I know I told you the movie started at 3, but I made a mistake with the time. It's really 3:30."

But it may be more natural to say "I made a mistake ABOUT the time" or "I was mistaken about the time."

But it may be more natural to say "I made a mistake ABOUT the time" or "I was mistaken about the time.""I was mistaken about the time."
seems the most natural to me.


Also IMO:
I had the wrong time
might work.
