Can you pull two power tubes in a Mav?

Is is possible to pull two of the four tubes to cut a Mav down to 20W? If so which ones?

No. You can't do this in any cathode-biased amp with a common cathode resistor, which most have including the Maverick. If you do, the remaining two tubes will run nearly wide open and fail very quickly, because not enough bias voltage will be generated.
