NHK accent dictionary:「4人」は,古くは[ヨッタリ]も。
Sankoku has a 〔古風〕 tag on よったり.
Presumably [ok] also applies to よたり, which is in even fewer references than よったり

  Comments:
From Googling it appears that (a) 4人 is more popular, and (b) 4人 is more likely to be よにん than よったり. よんにん is regarded as an error, but is spoken for emphasis. I don't think we should mention it.
