If you hand in a 2 week notice but the company lets you go immediately, does that mean you’ve technically been fired? Would you potentially get a severance package in that case?

*Sorry if this has already been asked. I know it’s At Will Employment, but I don’t understand how that plays into “being fired” if you’re let go early, and where severance packages come into play, if at all

No, you’re not considered fired. They will typically pay you for the two week notice period but you won’t work it. You’re usually considered employed through the notice period as well for the purpose of benefits.
