No, here when Thread-1 is in static synchronized method1() it must be holding lock on class class’s object and will release lock on class’s class object only when it exits static synchronized method1(). So, Thread-2 will have to wait for Thread-1 to release lock on class’s class object so that it could enter static synchronized method2().
Likewise, Thread-2 even cannot enter static synchronized method1() which is being executed by Thread-1. Thread-2 will have to wait for Thread-1 to release lock on class’s class object so that it could enter static synchronized method1().

If you note output, when Thread-1 was in static synchronized method1() it was holding lock on class class’s object. So, Thread-2 waited for Thread-1 to release lock on class’s class object to enter static synchronized method2().
