You could, although bolts may be too long, various brackets would need to be modified for the lesser lift, etc.

1"-3" (including 2") available below:

Body lift won't affect the tire-frame clearance. It only raises the body off the frame.

Hammer the standing seam flat and trim back the wheel well liner if needed:
