I mean destroying tons of Dremora in Oblivion, I think thats a good enough point to say that the Aldmeri Dominion wouldn't be able to beat the Argonians if they were to fight somewhere other than Argonia. I bet the Argonians could defeat, if not, do tons of damage if they were to go to Vallenwood and fight. Not to mention the time the argonians sacked Morrowind. In all honesty, the Argonians likely could have conquered all of Tamriel at any time. They just didn't feel like doing so. They only succesfully sacked Morrowind after Morrowind got virtually wiped out by Umbriel, and the eruption of Red Mountain.

Remember though that all throughout history those two races have been fighting one another. They had an uprising and they managed success against Morrowind at one point yes. But that was House Dres (1 in 5 Dunmer Great Houses) vs Argonians. And they only really won because the other houses saw the potential to stop Dres' influence in Morrowind if they got defeated by the Argonians.
