Well since you still have more than 2 weeks left, send an email to your boss saying something like "as I informed you in person on _____(insert date), I will be resigning from XYZ company. My last day will be_________(insert date). Make sure you CC yourself at a private email address so you have a copy. That way you have a record of having given proper notice if it hits the fan later on.
How you play the fly the day off vs get fired thing is up to you. To avoid having to explain it in future interviews, fly it if you can. If not, then be honest about it and you'll be fine. I completely disagree with Czech Airman that it will screw you forever. This stuff happens and the major airline HR departments know it.
To answer you original question of "can he do it?" Yes, he can fire you any time up until your last day of employment.
