I'm sure if Carlsen played it online here at chess.com, he'd beat GMs and have a rating over 2500 easily.

So yes, it's possible to get 2200 with it. Whether or not you can do it...

probably not at your current level.

At blitz my rating goes up when play 1.a3 2. b4      Ideal blitz opening for online play as the unusual patterns you will be far more knowing thqn your opponent     although i only 2140 at moment, but it possible get 2200 if you good enough

There have been masters who played all sorts of trashy openings. It's not the opening play that makes a master, it's tactics, positional understanding, endgame skill, and most importantly, a drive to win every game.
