Answer
Well, yes; your components can be made to operate nicely if you know how to install and power them.  It would be a custom installation, however, as you must run the wires and mount the power amps, etc.

It would not be a simple chore. This kind of installation is usually done by a custom install shop who has the workings to mount the amps, enclose the speakers and run the wiring and switches for convenient operation.

I suggest you either:

ONE: Use the services of a good install shop where they can do a professional job, or,
TWO:  Take a trip to the library or do some intense googling for design and installation of car audio systems. It will be a very good learning experience for you.

The cost of installing these components may be significant.  The woofer boxes to enclose the speakers may need to be customized for install in your Mazda and you may require brackets for mounting the amp.  Pulling the power from the battery will require 8 or 10 gauge wiring from the battery to the power amps.
