I don't believe it has been tested. There are plenty of alternative sweeteners that are EFI/FODMAP safe. For example; sugar (brown/white), or maple syrup.

Palm sugar can have excess fructose so it is high FODMAP. n average palm sugar is 85% sucrose, 3% fructose and 2% glucose.

I've used dark brown sugar (no FODMAPS concerns) as a sub for palm sugar and can't taste any difference at all.
