Yes. The difference between what a stock 4R TRD series will do vs a fully build one are minimal and mainly in the peace of mind department. I have a tiny lift and full underneath armor due to frequency of use in rocks but not because they are technically required.
Just get AT tires of your choice. Pretty much any AT in any load rating will do. But do also get a fifth one.
For the rest, stock is fine for many difficult trails (with care).
If anyone tells you stock is not fine for moderate trails, they are using a very skewed measuring stick, as in the sport of rock crawling vs going places.
