No I don't think they can live for 2 years, that's a little long for any mantidI've read that proper care for a ghost can give it a lifespan up to two years. If your room is kept cool it slows the aging process down as well I think. My ghost is several months old and still only l2 or 3. It has a hard time with crickets unless they are super tiny. Also, you will want to have a pretty small enclosure for a ghost since they won't hunt their food like other mantises. I personally found the ghosts a little harder to care for than the others, all but one died. Creos are a blast because mine would instantly kill and eat anything dropped in the enclosure.
but, like others said, mist daily, and they like warmer temps.
