Gaara was strong, Jonin level at least during the Chunin exams and in Part II definitely worthy of Kage. But can he take on the Six Paths? maybe, i think it's a close call. His versatile use of sand and style of attack makes him fairly resilient to the Paths, as he can keep them at a distance. But i mostly worry that he lacks the necessary firepower to actually defeat them.

A perfect jinchuriki -with Magnet release and Curse Seals- would definitely defeat him. Also count in the fact Gaara has his own Magnet Release and not just Shukaku's Magnet Release Cursed Seals...He would win.
