Probably wise.

When I made the vertical supports for my greenhouse, I did like Tony suggested above and used pairs of 2x4's screwed together to form my own 4x4's because it was cheaper than buying 4x4's. So rather than buying four 4x4's you could just get four more 2x4's and augment your existing corners if you wanted.
Your trellis looks like it'll be pretty sheltered from the wind. Is that the case, or is it somewhat exposed?
Gourds will look nice on it.
