Appears that python2 was removed from Homebrew on Jan 1, 2020:
brew install python@2
Error: No available formula with the name "python@2"
==> Searching for a previously deleted formula (in the last month)...
Warning: homebrew/core is shallow clone. To get complete history run:
git -C "$(brew --repo homebrew/core)" fetch --unshallow
python@2 was deleted from homebrew/core in commit 028f11f9e:
python@2: delete (https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/issues/49796)
EOL 1 January 2020.
We gave it 1 month more to live so that people had time to migrate.
All in all, developers had 11 years to do their migration.
You can use the `brew extract` command and maintain python@2 in your own
tap if necessary:

To show the formula before removal run:
git -C "$(brew --repo homebrew/core)" show 028f11f9e^:Formula/python@2.rb
If you still use this formula consider creating your own tap:
