Ignoring that article for a moment, the short answer is yes but only at an economic and social cost that no one is willing to bear.
Several countries have shown you can contain and effectively eliminate community infections but it takes several months of intense lockdown to do so. What hasn't worked is stopping the reintroduction of the virus via incoming travellers and I really can't see an indefinite ban on International travel getting a guernsey here or anywhere else for that matter. A couple of the smaller island nations are doing just that but when their economies are tourism based, it's only a short term strategy at best. Thus, the 'real' answer is probably no and even with a 50% efficacious vaccine the answer will probably remain a firm no.
