I understand the dash tweeters and front door woofers work in tandem to provide the front sound. I am looking at replacing speakers only, no additional amp (please not try to convince me to add an amp).
Will replacing the front door woofers with 2-way speakers provide any benefit (would that make 4 tweeters in the front?)? Or would that just negate the dash tweeters? Would this provide better sound quality?

Yes - you would effectively have 4 tweeters in the front of the vehicle if you replaced the door speakers with coax and left the dash speakers stock. Whether this is a benefit or not will come down to your equipment, install and listening preferences. Some people like powerful and sharp "highs" (treble, vocals, etc) in their setups; but more often than not adding redundant high frequency drivers to a system creates nothing but issues.
Theoretically speaking, you would be better off adding a 4ohm 3-4" coaxial (2-way) in the dash and replacing the door speakers with a 2ohm mid-bass/woofer. This will keep the frequencies separated as designed from factory, while adding better response and output.
