Anxiety yes , paranoia im not to sure

Yes. I am living proof.

A gentleman that I went to college with was in the Navy and went through hell week and in a one week period without sleep and extreme physical exertion people can develop paranoia, anxiety, and even experience hallucinations. But just one or two days without sleep and only light exertion should not cause those things.

You need sleep to recharge yourself many problems can crop up not just anxiety and paranoia
