No, the string would have to literally crack the bow under its momentum, it would snap in half before the string went to the other side of the bow causing it to bend the other way. But if the archer twisted it around in his hand to just make it face backwards in the middle of the shot that would just screw up the path of the arrow entirely and it probably wouldn't go more than a few feet.

Well his right hand is like part demon so he probably has super arrow powers

The archer is making a twist with his hand to make the arrow go in a side-ways trayectory. If you look at how the arrow impacts on the dude, you can ensure the arrow was not shooted straight but in a curve-ish manner.
Then again such a shot is impossible to achieve in real life, and even less with that extreme 180ยบ degrees twist of the bow, so we should call this just a fictionary and purely entertaining animation of the bow.
PD: Curved shots are possible IRL, but you can only make them counting on the wind's force, not moving your bow. And even then, such a precision is more than unlikely.
You can curve a shot with your bow but the curve is not very predictable at all but if you twist your bow that fast in the middle of a shot the arrow wouldn't go anywhere. I can understand if the archer had mythical powers, because that's just for fun and once you want to start doing stuff like that you're obviously not applying the laws of physics to your cartoon. If your going to purposefully throw logic out the window for fun: go ahead, but don't start applying logic and only do it halfway, (like sci-fi or speculative fiction done wrong) that's just inconsistent and annoying
