That the Hebrew language evolved over time seems to be agreed upon. If I understand correctly, the extent to which such texts can be dated is less agreed upon, given that editing may introduce changes. (Though editing, itself, can, to some extent, be analyzed.)
Two proposals or questions:
1) Poetry tends to be less edited than prose.
2) Composition of the Torah did not happen in a short time period, pace, e.g., Russell E. Gmirkin, writing that the five books were "composed in their entirety about 273-272 BCE by Jewish scholars at Alexandria," Berossus and Genesis, Manetho and Exodus (2006) page 1.
