A gas chainsaw has a centrifugal clutch, so if it was "stuck engaged" the chain would move with the starter cord. You'd know it before you gave it a real yank.
If you're starting with the choke engaged, it's possible the engine will idle at a speed high enough to engage the clutch and move the chain. 2-stroke engines aren't real anyway, they're bullshit wrapped in metal that works because the fossil fuel industry demands them to, so their behavior is entirely unpredictable and contrary to the operator's needs.
