Hi,
It's a more general expression of scepticism than that, expressing doubt that something is true or that something will happen.
eg
A: One day, I will be President of the USA.
B: As if!
eg
A: The USA is going to ban gun ownership completely.
B: As if!
eg
A: Mary said she loves Tom.
B: As if!

Hi,
I don't stress each word very differently, but I think I make the 'as' sound a little longer than the 'if' sound.
