Yes, that's a possible interpretation. But since he never mentioned a good battery, what he appeared to be saying is that two of the bad batteries -- in series -- would present enough voltage to the charger to fool it into thinking there was one partially discharged battery.
But if the two bad batteries are so bad that it takes two of them in series to mimic a partially-discharged good battery -- and they've been stored that way for some time -- then the following is almost certainly true:

The sad reality is that permanent damage has already occurred, and no snake oil is going to change the chemical facts. Yes, you can get some charge into it, but hardly worth it, as even fully charged they will be woefully inadequate.
