Yes, absolutely.
Shutter will remain open if flash output was not enough.
OTOH, the OM 2n will close at 1/60, regardless the accuracy of the exposure.

See:

<http://olympus.dementia.org/eSIF/om-sif/bodygroup/om2.htm>
"The OM-2 however will keep the shutter open when the flash does not
give enough output, using available light OTF as an addition to the
light produced by the flash. Some people think this is an advantage,
but it is not without reason Olympus changed this in the OM-2n: the
electromagnetic shutter will quickly drain the battery when it stays
open for extended periods."

"Accessory Shoe 3 can also only be used with the OM-2 (it will not fit
the OM-1, OM-1n or OM-2n). With a T Flash,  TTL "OTF" flash can be
achieved. With the Quick Auto 310 Flash, TTL "OTF" flash is not
possible."
