No, not a practically feasible idea. although the 'stroke' in 2-stroke and 4-stroke engines merely refers to the power cycles of the piston(s) per crankshaft cycle, the designs to achieve this are very different.
two cycle engines are simpler mechanically than 4-cycle as they do not require camshafts or reciprocating valve gear to operate. the simplest 2-stroke motors use ports in the cylinder walls to draw in fuel/air mixture and expel burned mixture to the exhaust system. Aside from these design differences, the lubrication function is handled quite differently--two strokes use oil mixed into the fuel and 4-stokes require high pressure pumps which force oil through passages in the crankshaft and valve gear. And exhaust systems are much different due to the way the engines produce power.
Engineers make fundamental design choices when conceiving an engine and it would be very difficult technically and stupidly expensive to try a conversion. Having said all this, still, I'll bet somebody gave it a shot at one time or other!

Why fuel consumption is less in 4 stroke engine then in 2 stroke engine?
Why the fuel consumption is less in 4 stroke engine as compared to 2 stroke engine
Which supplies more power a 4 stroke engine or 2 stroke engine?
2-stroke engines produce much more power than 4-stroke.
What is faster between a 2 stroke and a 4 stroke 4 wheeler engine?
i say that a 4 stroke is faster than a 2 stroke
Why does 4-stroke engine has higher RPM than 2-stroke engine?
the 2 stroke has more rpm than 4 stroke because it has less moving parts and the cycles are faster because there is only 2 and in the 4 stroke there is 4
How do 2 stroke engines provide more power than a 4 stroke?
In a 2 stroke, every second stroke of the engine is a power stroke. In a 4 stroke, every 4th stroke of the engine is a power stroke. Knowing this, a 2 stroke has double the power as a 4, in the same cc
Is a 1999 Polaris Sportsman 500 a 2 stroke or a 4 stroke engine?
4 stroke
Is a 1982 110 Honda atc a 2 stroke or a 4 stroke engine?
4 stroke
Can you use 4-stroke oil in a 2-stroke engine?
It is possible to use 4-stroke oil in a 2-stroke engine in an emergency situation. You should not use this oil in the long term as it will damage the engine.
Can you put 4 stroke oil into 2 stroke engine?
No you can not.
The burning air-fuel mixture forces the piston down on what stroke?
Depends on if this engine is a 2 stroke, 4 stroke, or rotary engine. I assume you are referring to a 4 stroke as found in the vast majority of automobiles built today. The answer is, At the top of the compression stroke. The 4 strokes of a 4 cycle engine are:# intake/induction stroke # compression stroke # power stroke # exhaust strokeDepends on if this engine is a 2 stroke, 4 stroke, or rotary engine.

Does your lawn mower require 2 cycle engine oil?
If it is a 2-stroke engine, 2-cycle engine oil is added to the gasoline. If the engine is 4-stroke, regular 30W motor oil is used. To tell if your engine is 2-stroke or 4-stroke, look for a spout where oil is poured into the engine. If there is no spout, then the engine is 2-stroke and 2-cycle oil must be added to the gasoline.
How do you tell if an outboard motor is 2 stroke with direct injection or a 4 stroke?
With a 2 stroke engine, you mix the oil with the gas. With a 4 stroke engine, there are separate tanks for the oil, and the gas.
