​I've done something like that using the xleap graphical interface, but
that was for a short organic polymer threaded inside a macrocycle. Not
more than 100 atoms total for the whole system. It was clunky, but it got
the job done.
 (It was also a *long* time ago

If you're talking about a ligand and its target receptor, that usually
means there are many hundreds or thousands of atoms involved.​ If that's
the case, tleap is the wrong tool to use. You'll need a docking program to
do that.

HTH,
