You can, but as previously mentioned there is a sprite limit per unit. The game is designed at 1:6, 1:4 is just as good, but remember the more sprites the more chances of units overlapping. You can set the sprite ratio for infantry and cavalry separately, so what you could do is leave the infantry at 1:6 or 1:4 to accommodate the big infantry battalions but maybe set it higher for cavalry squadrons.
You mention the infantry and Calvary sprite settings can be set differently...in my options menu, I only see one generic sprite setting, don't see separate ones. Am I missing something?

That can be set in Custom Scenarios, copying the following lines in the scenario.ini file and selecting your scale numbers:

[MenPerSprite]
Inf=4
Cav=1
