To use the stronger Shinra Tensei he needs to cut off chakra from the other paths, and he needs to do the same PLUS move Deva Path closer to his actual location to use Chibaku Tensei so no that won't help at all against Itachi in that case. Itachi is leagues above Naruto in mental capacities. This fight is much closer than people think, not to mention the 5 second gap between Shinra Tensei usages that even frickin' Choji figured out.
