You don't have to firewall -3C1 engine to get 23.5K even if it's derated to 22K. Firewalling will get you more than 23.5K thrust.

If you are asking if the engines will deliever 23.5K thrust to achieve normal 23.5K performance - yes. If you are asking whether this is even remotely legal or smart - NO.
