It depends on the amount of smoking you are doing within that time.
Emphysema does not just "occur" because you start smoking. If smoking is kept to maybe 2 or 3 cigarettes a week, you are unlikely to face any problems.
Emphysema is a gradual damage to your internal and the more you smoke the worse it will get. If you smoke for 2 years and then quit, your lungs will probably repair themselves, or at least repair themselves enough that you will have a normal breathing.
It also depends on how strong your body is. If you are on the right side of the population curve you may not be as effected. If you are on the left side, yes you could get it.

The people on the left are weaker, the ones on the right are stronger. The majority of the population are in the middle.
