When under power, the inter-axle diff (power divider) divides power among the 2 axles, then the axle differentials divide power among the wheels. With that being said, yes... you are using both axles as drive axles when under power. If the power divider is locked, it will then divide power equally between the front and rear tandem axles. Check out those videos... gives an idea of how power is split..

In the end, I would agree with what has already been mentioned. The wear on the components and amount of effort to convert would most likely outweigh any potential savings. Plus, in the event of a blowout, it would be nice to have the additional axle to help support the weight transfer. Peace of mind is a huge factor lol.
