You could do this

$interval = new DateInterval('P2Y4DT6H8M');
$str = $interval->format('%d:%h:%i:%s');
list($days, $hours, $minutes, $seconds) = explode(':', $str);
$elapsedSeconds =  ($days*86400) + ($hours*3600) + ($minutes*60) + $seconds;
echo $elapsedSeconds;

Use strtotime :

echo strtotime('2012-03-27 18:47:00'); //--> which results to 1332866820
