I've never saw the examples of the phrase "carry out" used as the meaning of "success".
Usually, I saw sentences "carry out" used as start or implement rule.
------I'm not a teacher, but I have quite much interest about usage of phrasal verbs.

Re: Phrasal Verb "Pull off"
Informally - "I can't believe he actually cracked it." (The 'it' doesn't have to be an egg or a strongbox.
If you 'crack it' you just succeed in something that you - or someone else - thought would be difficult.)
