Can it? Benefits provided by eating 2g/lb of BW of protein over 1.5g or even 1g/lb of BW are minimal at best, and many studies would show near to, or no benefit whatsoever, most especially for someone of your condition, from eating at that intake. However, you're only consuming 2g/lb of BW of carbs, whereas some sources suggest up to 4g/lb of BW can be highly beneficial, depending on your level of activity. Similar story for fats, the way I see it, if that level of protein yields little to no benefit over a lower level of protein, yet a higher level of other macros would yield greater benefit, downing your protein and upping your other areas would likely be the most beneficial choice. There's nothing wrong with that amount of protein in essence, but don't expect it to give better results than 1-1.5g/lb of BW, which most reliable sources still claim to be more than enough for optimality.
