no - you should do the task capture before you read the value, else you will get the previous value.

So after i read the value in the interrupt handler should i again do this NRF_TIMER2->TASKS_CAPTURE[1] =1;

No, the value in the CC[] register is only updated once each time you trigger the TASK_CAPTURE task. You're only triggering it once in the setup, so you'll get the same value every time.
