The previous version was a theme and is still available - https://wordpress.org/themes/p2/

This version is also a theme and will be released for self hosting in future too.

Wait so there was the old P2 and now there is the new P2 but at one point there was O2 which was supposed to be the next version of P2 https://geto2.com/ ?

Yep. Naming things is hard.

First there was actually the Prologue theme, then P2 was the second version (~2010?). Then O2 because “communication is oxygen for an organization”. Now back to P2 because that is the name that has stuck and everyone uses.

We (Automattic) use it as both a noun and a verb at this point. P2 or it didn’t happen.

Yes. The technology that made up o2 powers p2 now.
