Can my boss force me to work in an assigned seat and with dual monitors instead of my laptop only?

I’ve returned to the office 2x per week. Now there are rumors that the fact that some of us have been working wherever we choose and only on our laptops is a “hot topic” with upper management. They think it’s inefficient.

I still perform above and beyond their expectations, based on my stats. But knowing them they won’t care what the stats say. Can they make me work in a spot in-office that isn’t comfortable for my body? And if they try, I’d love some…
