Does look like it has an anther and stigma which orchids don't have.

The sepals/petals are also wrong for an orchid. This seems to have two sepals above the lip/center, then 4 petals below the lip/center which does not seem right for an orchid.

Generally an orchid has 3 sepals, 2 petals and a lip (which is a modified petal). Now there are variations of fused or almost hidden parts on orchid flowers, but I don't get the impression this is an orchid.
