Got a 75 and will be upgrading to a 90 in a month or two. pending when my order comes in. would I be safe adding 2 more clown fish in to the tank or not attempt it at all? I already have 2 that I have had for almost 2 years now. I don't think I should be is it doable? if so would I be safe to do it?

I would not do that in a 90 gallon. There’s not enough room for 2 pairs

Definitely not.
They will almost certainly fight to the death. Clownfish are extremely aggressive with conspecifics.

I wouldn’t recommend it either. Especially since it’s a mix reef and not a dedicated clown/anemone tank.

How about a pair of Bengali cardinals or fire fish instead? Have you seen the small clown gobys? They are very unique as well.
