Either one. English prepositions are amazingly flexible. Unlike in French where they have several "ins" "ons" "fors" and "froms"
That must be used specifically.
FOR is, however, more discriptively accurate.
FOR example,
For a long period of time.
In a minute.

"I haven't heard from you in a while" is the correct way of saying it.

In a while is correct. For a while isn't grammatically correct.
