Is medium weight yarn equal to 4 ply yarn?
Most 4-ply yarns are medium-weight, which may carry the name worsted weight yarn. Ply is a complicated thing. Thickness and ply of yarn is different depending on where the yarn is manufactured. In the U.S. worsted weight is generally 4 ply. The number of plies is not always an indication of weight, however. It is just tells you how many strands are used in that type of yarn.

How does US worsted classification 4 compare with UK yarns in knitting?
See http://www.YarnStandards.com for how the categories of yarn weights compare in terms of relative gauges and needle sizes used to achieve those gauges. Worsted weight (Category 4 - Medium) is the yarn commonly used to knit sweaters in the U.S. U.K. knitters often use a slightly thinner yarn called "DK" (double knitting), which falls into Category 3 - Light. Worsted weight yarn is typically knit at 20 sts/4 in or 10 cm on US 7/4.5mm needles, whereas DK weight yarn is typically knit at 22 sts/4 inches or 10 cm on US 5/3.75mm needles. Some countries still use the old 2-ply, 4-ply, 6-ply, 8-ply classification to describe yarns, where 4-ply is fingering weight, 6-ply is sport weight, 8-ply is DK, and 10-ply is worsted weight. One problem with that system of classification is that it assumes a standard ply weight. There are many yarns these days (particularly in the Bulky and Super Bulky categories 5 and 6) that are single-ply yarns which knit at various gauges on various needle sizes.

What is the difference of double yarn and single knitting yarn?
"Double knit," refers to the weight or thickness of the yarn. Double knit is between sport weight and worsted weight. It is named for the knitting technique that most often calls for this weight: double knitting. Double knitting is the knitting of a two sided fabric that is reversable with a two color pattern on one side and the negative of that pattern on the reverse side. It is called double knitting because both sides are knit at the same time on one set of needles. "4 ply" refers to the number of individual strands twisted together to form a yarn. A yarn with two strands is called "2 ply," and so on. The number of plies determines, to a degree, the fluffiness or smoothness of a yarn. Yarn with more plies is generally smoother and less fluffy. The number of plies does not determine the weight or thickness of the yarn. It is possible to have a double knit yarn that is also 4-ply, or to have a thicker yarn that is has more or fewer plies. The same is true with a thinner yarn.
The meaning of ply yarn?
There are two meanings for 'ply' with wool. Some wool manufacturers use the term ply to describe the weight of the wool. A 2 ply is a very fine baby wool whereas a 16 ply is a chunky or heavy weight yarn. The other meaning is the number of threads the yarn consists of. For example to a hand spinner a 2 ply means a yarn that has two single threads 'plied' together to form one length of yarn.
Can you knit a 8 ply pattern in 4 ply wool?
The difference between 8-ply and 4-ply wool, can depend on the weight of the plies. Some 3-ply yarns have heavy weight (fatter) plies, which knit up heavy worsted, where 2-ply lace weight yarn plies are much lighter (skinnier) plies that knit up very light/lacy/small.If I were to guess, the 8-ply in question, may have smaller plies than the 4-ply. I think if you double the 4-ply, that would be too much. You should try a gauge swatch using the 4-ply singularly, and maybe adust the needle size.
