Yes, a 24GB M2 MacBook Air should be able to do this just fine, but your 64GB Intel MacBook should not be having any issues doing these things either. What happens when you say "it gets throttled"?
My 2018 15" MacBook Pro is only a 16GB model and would have no issues performing these tasks. I would suggest removing the bottom panel of your MacBook and cleaning the exhaust vents. Being an Intel model, it is at least 3 years old, and dust can certainly buildup in that time.
If that does not fix the problem, something else is wrong. Yes, the intel MacBooks run hot, but even today they should be able to perform well, especially with 64GB of RAM.
