Could two old theoretical physicists help the stalkers?

I have an earth like planet where stalkers live. They are:

1. Humanoid about same height, strength & speed as humans
2. Three pairs of eyes placed horizontally (Near UV, Visible, Near IR)
3. Lightspeed neurotransmission
4. Active camouflage like cuttlefish
5. Biological radio for high bandwidth communication, range 1m
6. Spoken language for most of the communication
7. IQ similar to humans.

Their society is tribal, with technological level of pre-Columbian North America.

In our near future narrow wormhole opens close to the path of the spaceship headed for Mars research station. Two old theoretical physicists who traveled on the ship steal one small craft and traverse the wormhole before it collapses. Long story short they found themselves on the Stalker planet, alive but with no equipment at all. The Stalker tribe where they landed find them odd but amusing and accepts them as guests. Unfortunately their hosts are at conflict with larger nearby tribe, and beside some miracle they will be wiped out in few years.

Could two old theoretical physicists help their hosts turn the tide? Their bodies are healthy but old, their technology is lost, all they have is their minds and knowledge.

Humans could eat local food, drink local water, breath the air, and there's no problems with diseases. Stalker spoken language is very simple, humans could pick it up quickly.
