Not if 512 filmed with two different production units (two directors filming different scenes at the same time), which has been done before. They did that when 508 and 509 filmed at the same time, and I believe the same happened with Smash the Mirror. Smash the Mirror had longer time filming, it doesn't make sense that one director shoots a scene with Elizabeths and Georgina while the other director does that too. 508 and 509 have different set of actors and different plots so they were able to shoot them at the same time. In addition, if that had been the case with 512, we would have heard about it from the stalkers. Well based on Adam's comment on Season 5 being 23 episodes total now, that still leaves an extra hour to account for. That would mean that 5B would have to be 12 episodes, since 5A is 11 episodes. They only have 10 available weeks to air all of 5B's 12 episodes, based on my calculations. March 6th is the confirmed return date, and is the week after the Oscars. May 8th is the last possible day to air the Season finale, because the Billboard Music Awards air May 15th. Plus, May 8th is Mother's day, as is tradition for all of OUAT's Season finales. Now logically we'll get another 2 hours for the finale night, but that still leaves another night that would likely have to be 2 hours for scheduling reasons. Now if 512 isn't extended into 2 hours on its own, I guess there's the chance it could air back to back with 513 instead. 22 episodes. 23 hours.
