enough to germinate and start 30 seedlings. Yes. to grow 30 full healthy plants in vegetative state. Probably not.

I grow Jalapenos, Tomatoes, and other vegetables under a 4' T5 fixture with 4 bulbs, but it is 20,000 lumens not 2000
My 2' 4 bulb T5 has 9600 lumens

the first time i ever grew i used three 2' t5 flouro bulbs and they worked fine to veg 4 plants. 30 plants in a closet seems like quite a bit. unless your closet is quite large you may want to find more space for the end of vegging and all of flowering.
