I think they mean the idle plate current is the same in triode mode. That is not the same as claiming the maximum power output is the same (which is indeed unlikely.) With the same load and idle current, I would expect the tubes to clip sooner in triode mode as the grids go positive. As long as the tubes aren't driven to that point, it is plausible that they might not cutoff at the other end of the load line, thus operating class A. But the power output would be about half the beam-tetrode maximum.
