Nope. SP2 is now out of lifecycle with no updates allowed.

No, even a manual install will fail.

Support for WinXP SP2 ended on 13 July 2010. Computers running WinXP SP2
"will no longer receive software updates from Windows Update" [i.e., updates
released on & after 02 August 2010] until SP3 has been installed. Extended
Support for WinXP SP3 will continue through 08 April 2014.

. What does it mean if my version of Windows is no longer supported?
