No, it would not. A proper magazine for your M2 woud have a nickle tube and a wood base with the triangle in a circle inspector's mark like the mark on the left side of the receiver of your M2 Luger.

With regard to the magazine in the original post, the Portuguese did not manufacture magazines. The magazines were procured from DWM, Mauser and other sources. The magazine shown appears to be like those made in Denmark with a blued tube and wood base. The KK markings could have been applied at any time but I suspect the time frame of the magazine is more around the M43 Portuguese Lugers made by Mauser.
