I was just researching the exact question and iI have some bad news.

theThe ORIGINAL nrf24l01+ alone use around 10-12 ma in transmitting, but unoriginal might even Drawdraw more. (https://www.sparkfun.com/datasheets/Components/SMD/nRF24L01Pluss_Preliminary_Product_Specification_v1_0.pdf)

neverthelessNevertheless a standard Cr2032CR2032 battery is simply not made to supply more than a few milli ampsmilliamps at the best, leaving your nrf24L01+ lacking enough current.

thereThere is something called shockburst which can lower youyour consumption considerably at the cost of range - but if it will succedsucceed in transmitting with one cr2032CR2032 I'm not sure about.

Edit: If you add a capacitor you need to cover a atleastat least a 10ma drain for around 15ms (turn on - send - turn of immediately), that will require a minimum of a 200µF capacitor at 3V to be able to deliver the current while keeping above 2.0v.
