Why is it impossible? They're the same character. You're saying that he grew in power, but I'd just like to know why you are assuming this? Obi-Wan and Yoda grew weaker in those 15 years. We also know that Palpatine's younger self was more powerful.
Gideon (R.I.P.) made a good point about that. Kenobi (despite his words in the ANH novel) and Yoda didn't have a galaxy under their control, and weren't endeavoring to use that fact to collect every bit of knowledge of the Force their agents could locate. Palpatine didn't just "level up" in DE. Even with a comparatively hindered power-base, he was studying for his final exam.

Again, this is an assumption. Yoda has proven to be able to handle stormtroopers very well and I do not think Vader would be able to take Yoda either.
But could RotS Yoda take on TFU Palpatine
and Vader
and Stormtroopers while simultaneously protecting manacled people? Kamikaze ensured Marek could.
