client has had home office for over 30 years.  he is planning to sell his home in 2 years. if he shuts down his home office 2 years before he sells his home does he still have to recapture depreciation of previous home office?

Yes, it will be taxable.  The gain due to depreciation taken after May 6th, 1997 can NOT be covered by the $250,000/$500,000 exclusion.
