They say it's quite unlikely to be updated, so if you want to play it, it's pretty safe to do so as is.
The author of this thread has indicated that this post answers the original topic.

Not possible until updated Source SDK is released.

See dev's reply here https://steamcommunity.com/app/658920/discussions/0/6955341154010373192/#c6955341348098547951

Just for my understanding: The mod uses a completely seperate installation of HL2 right? So it does not use the files of the flat HL2?

Yes they're completely independent games and only share license on user's account.

Okay, that's what I thought, thanks.

We've been working on our own remastered version for a while now, but I can't give a timeline as to when it may be out. You can try the beta for it if you want but there may still be some bugs.
Where we can find the beta?

I wish Valve give access to Source 2 SDK. It would be sick to port hl2 on that engine.

I managed to get it running and sent the files to the Flat2VR Discord where the devs often speak. Here's the description from what I wrote and the files.

Okay, I've set this up so you can just install it provided you have HL2 and HL2VR on the same Steam library.
***This will break your existing save games just like the anniversary update itself.***

You don't have to do these next steps but you probably want to.
First thing is to delete the folders "hl2," "episodic," and "ep2" since we will be using the folders from the Half-Life 2 game itself. You don't have to delete these folders but they're not going to be used anymore
(though you will probably have to redownload them if an update to hlvr happens.)
Next is to rename "gameinfo.txt" to "gameinfo.bak" in each folder for the VR mod and paste the contents of the zip I sent into "steamapps\common\Half-Life 2 VR"
At this point you should be good to play the game but there's some other things you might want to check over.

You can edit the new "gameinfo.txt" files now so you can mount Workshop or custom content (instructions are in the file itself.) If you don't have Half-Life 2 on the same drive as the VR mod then replace |gameinfo_path|..\..\Half-Life 2 with C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Half-Life 2

Copy paste the link in browser instead because Steam messes it up when redirecting
