In High School, the minute a try is kicked, it is dead, regardless if the kick succeeds, misses, or is blocked behind the line. If there is a fumble on a two point conversion and the defense takes possession, the ball is dead and the try has failed. In the NCAA/NFL, if a PAT is blocked behind the line and possessed, or a two point conversion is turned over (interception or fumbled) and returned into the end zone it adds two points to the defense's score.

When was the two point conversion first introduced in HS football?
The two-point conversion in high school football was first introduced in 1988. Before that, high school football only allowed for one point after a touchdown, which was typically attempted through a kick. The introduction of the two-point conversion added an additional option for teams to try to earn two points after scoring a touchdown, giving them an opportunity to score more points in a single play if they could successfully execute the conversion. This rule change mirrored the two-point conversion rule that had been in place in college and professional football for some time.
