Every possibilty that it's the coil pack , very common .Also check plugs .Though that code is " P0420 Catalytic converter efficiency below threshold, possible causes Catalytic converter failed, wiring or O2 sensor 2 (post cat) faulty."

Cant figure out your post . You ask if it could be coil pack and on reply you now say coil pack replaced .Check wiring to coil pack also .
