No, he did not. He made the guard punch himself in the face when his arm was being held in front of him. The guard was not trying to punch Magneto and friends from across the room. A technicality, I know, but an important distinction. Now, I'm sure QS could redirect a normal person's punch, but it would be a waste of time considering he could do more with a mere slap.
The point was to counter the argument that he could redirect Kal's punch, despite the fact that he had never done it before to anyone.
