Yes, you can get food poisoning from a cut-up watermelon that has been sitting at 95 degrees Fahrenheit for more than two hours. Bacteria can multiply rapidly at temperatures above 40 degrees Fahrenheit, and cut fruit provides a moist environment conducive to bacterial growth. Consuming such fruit poses a risk of contamination, leading to potential foodborne illnesses. It's best to discard any perishable food left out in unsafe temperatures for extended periods.
