Yes, it's possible to stream/view 4k content on 1080 TVs. With the updated info provided, it's probably unlikely in your case though.
You'd need 4K-capable ROKUs, and be actively seeking out 4k content (there will typically be a 4k and/or HDR label/banner for most titles on the info page/thumbnail).
In the case of Netflix, you would have to have a 4k plan.

You might access your router's admin/set-up feature and see if you can view actual data transmission logs to check for any discrepancies between actual data transmitted and what your ISP is telling you.
But with 4 "runaway" ROKUs I imagine it's totally possible. As mentioned, you probably want to make it a habit to return each device is the main menu before shutting the TVs off.
Also, you might want to disable any "auto play next episode" feature for all content.
