It was certainly available in 1940 (there was a new tin launched in 1940, according to their history website), but always as a "crispbread", not a "cracker" which is not a British English term.
Perhaps not so much an anachronism, as a transpondian translation, like "Sorcerer's Stone" for "Philosopher's Stone"?
