sorry to disappoint you, but there's no heaven, so the question is moot.

This appears to be a loaded question. As it is currently formed the simple answer for me, as an Orthodox Christian, is no.
However, if the question read,"Can Jews get to heaven without consciously trusting and believing in Jesus?", the answer is a definite yes. The Church's teaching on salvation is not that if you do not trust Christ you can not be saved but that if you want to be saved your best and safest option is to trust Christ.
The other thing to keep in mind is that anyone(ANYONE) who goes to heaven goes there by and through the Word of God(Jesus). If a six year old Muslim girl dies she WILL be with God in His Kingdom and she will be there by the mercy and power of Jesus who loves her.

The easy answer here is NO.
If you go to Romans chapter 11 1-36
In this chapter you will see Gods plan for the Israelites. Rememeber Paul , being an Israelite was very concerned over the fate of his relatives and kinsmen.
You will see that God will in time open all eyes to the truth of Jesus Christ and what he did for all humans. So, eventually even the Israelites will know Jesus as their personal savior.

Act 4:10-12 "Be it known unto you all, and to all the people of Israel, that by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom you crucified, whom God raised from the dead, even by him does this man stand here before you whole. This is the stone which was rejected by you builders, which is become the head of the corner. Neither is there salvation in any other: for there is no other name under heaven given among men, by which we must be saved."
Salvation comes through Jesus Christ, not by any merit of our own. Salvation is redemption from death, (hell), and from sin, and the acceptance of salvation reconciles us to God. If any man.woman does not receive it, they cannot enter into heaven.

Not exactly. His sacrifice was necessary for anyone to get to heaven. And you have to love Christ in order to get to heaven. But Jesus is present in everyone (that which you do unto the least of my people, that you do unto me), so by loving others, you're loving Christ whether you realize it or not.
