The recipe says 2 Oz Yeast Which I assume is fresh. Can I use dry yeast? If so how much?

1 oz. = 1 Tablespoon
For 6 lbs. I use 4 Tbs. (to be argued Iy”h below by others)
Enjoy the smell, I’m stuck on my chair.

I buy the things of fermipan (instant dry yeast) and use 2 tablespoons per 2.24 lbs. of flour and it's great.
