I'm sure it's possible.
I'm sure it can happen more than once.
But to claim it consistently does so? As in, most of the time? Nope. The human body is not as stable as that, even highly trained snipers need something to brace on ;)
I'm sure the Oly camera is excellent, and that their IS is pretty good. But there's no magic involved. The human body is not made for being so still for such a long time, and the sensor/IS system simply do not have the room to compensate for such an amplitude of movement.
The key here is "consistently". I've captured handheld images at around a second with my K-3 and K-1. It can be done. But often, reliably? No way Jose.

It's probably much, much more related to technique, lens, camera weight, body of the user, how the person was braced, distance to subject, etc.
2 seconds without ANY help might be possible, but it would require
1-many trials )i.e. it's not an average image, to be sure)
2-luck
3-a wide focal length
4-a user with excellent technique, controlled breathing
5-maybe something against which to lean
The person might have cheated or not, however if that person claims that Oly delivers 2 seconds handheld exposures consistently, regardless of the conditions, then that person is lying. The amount of movement involved in holding still for two seconds prevents any company from making that claim.
