They wouldn’t know it if you did damage to the body after that time. They absolutely would know that the severed end of the spinal cord that remained connected to the brainwas sending very loud pain signals for the brief time they remained conscious.
Guillotine is almost certainly worse than hypoxia; having nerves severed is agonizing. Having almost all of them severed would be insanely painful.
That said, what if we just didn’t kill people. That would be cool.

If the nerves connected to the brain are severed, how can someone even know they’re in pain? (Also, they die immediately.)
FYI, they were making a joke about complacent, exploitative rich people, e.g. the French Revolution.
“Immediately” is 4-10 seconds.
I think the sudden blood pressure going to zero would probably end conscious awareness fairly quick
“fairly quick” is 4 to 10 seconds.
I bet you could recite the whole alphabet in that amount of time
Not without vocal cords you’re not.
