Does Ising partition function determine the number of $k$-matchings mod $4$ for cubic graphs?

Let $G$ be a cubic graph. It's known that the Tutte polynomial $T_G$ of $G$ on the hyperbola $(x-1)(y-1)=2$ determines the Ising partition function of $G$ and vice versa. A $k$-matching in a graph $G$ ...
