Doubtful, but a better description with some pictures or drawings are needed to tell for sure.

Look online to see how a new clear-span version of your building would be built today. You may find that nearly every 2X4 and 4X4 are replaced by 2X6 and 4X6.

If the center posts are removed, the extra span length will increase the loads on both the upper and lower parts of the rafters and also on the walls. 2X4's construction with 4X4 posts does not sound oversize for the building as it is now. How old is the building and what are your winds like?

Check the building over, if it is already starting to lean or sag anywhere I wouldn't start removing out any supports.
