Maybe, depending on its exact dimensions. If it's an ideally thin dowel that's 9 feet long and of negligible radius, then it will fit; if it's a beam four feet wide and thick, then no.

First let's see if we can carry it flat:

4^2 + 8^2 = 16 + 64 = 80. This is less than 9^2, so we can't carry it lying flat no matter how thin it is.

However, if we include the third dimension, then 4^2 + 4^2 + 8^2 = 96, and that's greater than 9^2 (81), so it could potentially fit.

What is the Dressed four sides definition?

Rough cut refers to the first cutting of the board from the unprocessed timber. This creates a piece of lumber with almost exact measurements and a splintery, rough surface.Dressed lumber is created when a rough cut board is passed through a planer. The planer removes a very thin layer of wood, creating a smooth finish. Lumber can be dressed on all four sides [aka D4S] or only two [aka D2S]. Dressing is also known as Surfacing. Similarly, Surfaced Four Sides [aka S4S] and Surfaced Two Sides [aka S2S] mean the same. Note: Dressing changes the actual size of the rough cut measurement. For example, a piece of 2x4 lumber that has been dressed on all four sides has an actual measurement of approximately 1.5 inches thick by 3.5 inches wide.


Why is a 2 x 4 not 2 inches by 4 inches?

Over a century and a half ago, wood was milled a true 2" x 4" ....thus 2x4 .....the same with 2x6, 2x8 ....and so on. However it was "rough sawn" lumber. Wood size standards came about in the 1920 's or so. still made chnges in the mid 60's But the need for more finished lumber drove sawmills to go through another step in the milling process.. saw mills were crude and milled in crude dimentions. if the mill surfaced one side it was S1S......Surfaced ! Side.... S2S ..and so one. Economics was the real player in all this ...The new surfaced sizes became the standard...
