No the smaller 4 wd will pull it but maybe not as fast because of lower horsepower but it will pull it.
I had 165 hp 2wd and a 165 hp 4wd both 1086 IH.In ideal conditions the 4 wd would pull same 24 ft disc in same gear but less wheel slip so you where moving about .5 mph faster.In less than perfect conditions the 4 wd was much better.

Had a 90 hp 4wd 10,000lb loader tractor that will push more than 150 hp 2 wheel 13,000lb with loader. But on lighter pushing jobs the 150 will push it faster.
Hope this all makes it a little clearer.
