In version 1.9.x, it was possible to run dnscrypt-proxy with user other than superuser (with 'user' parameter), for security purpose of course. I could not find the same option in v2.
Is it possible to implement ?

As you already saw in the documentation, this is possible on Linux.

But not on other platforms, as this is currently a tricky thing to do in Go, that may be addressed in a future release of the language.
