"Early retirement" option in 2nd pillar pension

Of course you can (see here, last sentence).

The question is if - or rather how - that excludes voluntary contributions that occurred more than three years prior.

As a matter of fact, many pension funds or vested benefits foundations do only report voluntary contributions within the last three years prior to transferring the benefits (to AXA, in this case), if at all. In other words, if you made voluntary contributions with other pension funds earlier in life / before becoming insured with AXA, AXA likely won‘t know or find out.
