I hate to burst your bubble, but there are lots of casual players who are very high master/GM. Depending on what race he plays and the manner in which he wishes to reach GM I think this is entirely possible.

I think it's an awesome challenge that you have set yourself there, but it's very very difficult to reach GM level of play. I'ts not all about the amount of time you put into it but also about how you spend your time. I think you could very well reach GM if you work very hard for it and don't stop for anything.
I wish you the best of luck man

Since you don't start with this run for some time, it might be smart to put into OP when you plan on starting your run to GM.

Diamond league into GM?

I don't think anyone has done that in less than a year. But if you think speedrunning relatively trivial games makes you proficient in SC2... Good luck?

there are 200 players in GM who have been playing since forever. Some diamond guy with 2k games played (not much talent), would have to have more hours logged with proper training than those already in GM. Thus, it is impossible.
Question.?

Looking at your games played, I don't think you have much of a shot, but go for it anyways. You'll probably end up getting masters, which is also a decent achievement in itself.

Why is it hate? You enter a challenge and people give their opinion. I don't think you will do it because I personally think someone cannot improve by such a large margin and the grandmaster is full of multiple account users so its even harder. If you take that and other posts as hate (and can't stand it) you probably shouldn't have made a blog about it

2,5 months are definitely too short. If you play a lot and concentrate on executing strong builds, while maintaining knowledge of the current metagame, you'll make it to masters. But the skill gap between mid masters level and gm level is insane.
All-inning should take you pretty far into master league, but you'll hit a wall soon, unless your control is godlike. (which I doubt from what I've read here)

Anyway, good luck.
first we make expand, then we defense it.
