I seems Elon didn't say the person would be either alive, or whole, when he, or she, gets to Mars, nor whether the landing would be hard or soft, nor whether there would landing at all, nor is there any mention of any form of return to earth.
There is no doubt we can send urns full of ash, or even intact corpse to mars right now. A human corpse is much less massive and more compact than some of the probes we sent.
The only promise humans ever made to get to a destination in space that were actually kept was considerably more specific than that.
