I wouldn't think anything but really strong (read: expensive) trekking poles would be able to take that kind of weight and force. And the expensive ones you wouldn't want to risk it with anyway.

That seems like an awesome idea. A lot more portable than the TurtleDog stand.

I would think about taller dowels though if you need to hang a tarp...maybe stretch them up to 5'
