Lied to interviewer

Really need help here bc my anxiety is through the roof!!!!

I am currently employed at a company that i no longer wish to stay at. I got an interview for another company that I truly want to work for. When she called for the interview she asked if i was employed & I just said no. I did 2 rounds of interviews & was selected for the position.

Im kinda freaking myself out because im scared if i quit my current job & my new job runs my background check & sees that i was actually employed they will take back the offer.

I guess my question is how likely is this to actually happen? I cannot afford to be jobless.
