if I dont have a license to conceal carry at all and I happen to have a gun and something happens or someone tries attacking me and I use that as self defense could I get in trouble.

At the bottom of the page, see Resourses, then download Texas Handgun License Handbook Read and learn pages 53 - 59.
I'd become familiar with the laws; however, you have a right to transport your weapons anywhere in the country (Firearm Owners Protection Act of 1986), so, you do not have to possess a CCW license.
if during transportation you believe your life, you family's lives, and/or others lives in the immediate vicinity are in imminent danger, then you are well within your rights to collect your firearm/s and use them in self defense, or in the defense of others.
Generally speaking, a CCW is not required to use a firearm when your life is in danger. A CCW simply gives you the luxury of carrying your handgun/PDW out of sight while on your person.
