I don't think it's possible, because at the drill if i use tips (from the computer!), then it's just a draw. Should i try it with stockfish?

But in the drills the pawn is too far advanced. It is impossible i try it with computer.

The pawn is in the right place. See the "Troitsky line" chapter here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two_knights_endgame
The article states that this endgame is too difficult for grandmasters, and apparently it is for weak computer programs (like the Maximum bot here). An engine with an endgame database mates without thinking.
