In a retcon it can be probable as one point of view that Ornstein could be an illusion in DKS1, however there is no absolute proof he was an illusion. So it's all speculation. Another point of view is that Gwyndolin, Ornstien and Smough's death was not cannon. Just like the dark lord ending wasn't canon and link the fire ending was. Ornstein's set in DKS3 claims that he long guarded the cathedral before setting out in search of the Nameless King. Smough's set also states that he was the last knight to guard the cathedral, hinting that he remained vigilant in his duty after Ornstien had departed. Therfore, it can be speculated that he was at Anor Londo but never died and most likely survived his battle with the chosen undead.
