Question:

The water level at our lake is low right now and the hull of my boat is below the dock. Would it work if I installed a dock wheel on top and one on the bottom?

I reached out to Taylor made and although you can mount the Taylor Made Dock Wheel Bumper # 3691072 on the top of your dock, you cannot mount it upside down on the bottom. Instead, I recommend using the Taylor Made Low-Profile Boat Guide Wheel for 1-1/2" Diameter Dock Pipes - PVC # 3691214. This guide wheel installs on 1-1/2" dock pipes and can be stacked to accommodate larger boats if need be.
