Can I tow this

Some early Borg Warner automatics had an oil pump driven by the output shaft. If this is true on yours then towing it 4 down wouldn't be a problem, if the transmission was left in Neutral. Get the model number off a tag that's riveted to the side of the transmission. Google it and find out if you have an oil pump that's driven by the output shaft.

Yes, that's true, it may have a rear pump. Some older automatic transmissions with rear pumps would allow you to push start if the engine wouldn't turn over for whatever reason. You had to get the vehicle up to about 20 mph in neutral, then put it in drive/low, then off you go. Without more info on the transmission, I'm not sure I would be comfortable towing it in neutral while generating oil pressure though.
