Can you use exiftools to rename file 4 digital 1 up?

I don't understand the question.
* Did you read FAQ #3 and use the command listed there?
* Please use the Code button for exiftool code/output.
 
* Please include your OS, Exiftool version, and type of file you're processing (MP4, JPG, etc).

I am looking to name file example 0001 is it posabile to name file with Naming-4 Digit Counter

See the examples for %c/%C under the Advanced features section of the  -w (-TextOut) option.  Examples E and F under the %c section show the format for 4 digits.  You would use this with the Filename and Directory tags instead of the -w option.

For renaming using a tag instead of a copy number, you could use the example in this thread.
