I think the Lockdown Mode will disable 2G only starting with iOS 17.
The press release [1] doesn't mention 2G directly but only "safer wireless connectivity defaults" but FastCo [2] is more direct "with iOS 17, Apple is not only beefing up Lockdown Mode (by blocking the iPhone from connecting to 2G cellular networks and from auto-joining insecure wireless networks) but bringing Lockdown Mode to the Apple Watch".
