Can I power a 64x64 display with a 5V 2A power supply without issue? Teensy 3.6 + SmartMatrix V4

The power consuming depend on scan pattern of your matrix. If you have a indoor 64x64 1/32 matrix - it means that at any moment of the time only 128 pixels are switched on.
In case of 1/8 outdoor panel it will lit 512 pixels at the time and the current will 4 times more than in the first case.

See the formula in that thread
