No, Ryft, our evolution doesn't "allow" for 900 year old human beings (even the choicest of mutations wouldn't "allow" it). Figure out why for yourself. It would seem that a willingness to presuppose magic in one arena leads one to overlook the magic being invoked in the next.
(pro-tip: what sort of name would you suggest for this new creature? Homo might not cut it, we'd need material from elsewhere, probably alot of elsewheres. Still, I like the "Homo" bit, continuity. Maybe some combination of Anima, Scientia, Iunctura, and Longaevus? "Homoscientia Longaevus" has a ring to it.)

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
