    Frankie, you can top feed 2-pipe steam

    Steam is lighter than air, and the radiator steam trap is the air vent. No problem top feeding, if the radiator is rated for steam. That's the real question.

    If the radiator has pockets at the bottom that don't drain well, it may not be rated for steam. I don't know about the radiators that you want to use, this is a general rule.
