Um, sort of.
I assume you have a NT (pre 88) LWB? A 2" BL will be plenty to clear all the obvious places, but you will have trouble with steering lock with "conventional" backspacing on your rims. The tyres will foul the inner guards, springs, shock mounts and chassis depending on how much flex it has and what rims are on it.
If you run "offset" rims with less backspacing than standard, this will help the fouling mentioned above(along with improved stability), but the increase in scrub radius in the front will make clearance at the firewall and behind the headlight bucket an issue.
I do not recommend more than a 2" body lift.
