NO, not without mods.
The 4wd uses a much thicker strut body on the front, the rears however just differ in the width of the bottom eye fitting, it being around 1/2" wider on 4wd, just a guess but i wouldn't be surprised if they use the same coily and just supply a 1/4" sapcer to go on either side of the eye fitting to take up the difference.
On the front the 2wd have been used before by using a adaptor sleeve to suit the size needed, ie thicken up a 2wd strut body.
