no, you'll need to get dual 2ohm subs to use that amp.

your subs wire to 4 ohms or 1 ohm...the amp seems to be 2 ohm stable so the only wiring possibility would be to wire to 4 ohms and give them 787rms...youd be underpoering them but it wouldnt damage them

look for an amp that'll do anywhere from 1000-1500wrms at 2ohm for the pair of r's. and what you mean how they might be set up from an installer? they'll know what to do. and definately port them.

either ones, dual 2 or 4ohm, doesn't matter so long as the amp you get will give them enough power at the right ohm load. and stay away from those proboxs', they suck really bad. either make one or have one made for you.

judging by numbers, those subs (DVC 2 ohm) and that jbl gto1201.1 are a perfect match.
