Yes.

On the switch, define the ports that need to be on VLAN2 as "access ports".

VLAN2, Untagged, PVID2

Then use a single cable from your edgerouter to any one of those ports.

Make sure that no other (V)LANs are assigned to that particular port on the EdgeRouter.

Thanks!

"Untagged" here means default VLAN with id:1 - the one used when nothing is set. By default all ports on the switch are set as untagged for this id.
Maybe i should have marked VLAN1 and VLAN2 as VLAN10 and VLAN20 (with respective id's) to avoid confusion.
