Almost positive you can't, because they are longer they won't match up with what the lift kit sends you, and the kits are engineered to work with factory length struts, not the longer ones, so the upper control arm won't be able to reach the spindle

Do they just lift 2inches? I know some guys will stack a 2in lift spacer on their 6in kits. You should be fine, I wouldn't do it but it is essentially just like adding a level to a stock truck. Most lift kits are designed to keep the geometry of everything pretty close to stock.

I believe they are stock length struts, they just come with the spacer on top. So no worries about strut length.
