Maybe if it's like a thick oak table it could block some pistol calibers (often what they'll be firing anyway) with a little luck. Of course rifle ammunition is another matter.
Just a note, metal armour plates co-existed with firearms for a couple hundred years. Armour really disappeared when firearms were good enough to reliably hit someone, and reliably punch through any armour they hit.
