Is the Second Quarto of Hamlet a playhouse script?
No, at least not for the common stage. The full-length version of the play, as printed, is closet drama, for reading. The theoretical possibility exists that the full version might have been done in private performance at the home of an aristocratic patron, where the time limit of the common stage might not have applied.
