no, that amp puts out 200 watts RMS per channel, those subs can only handle 150 watts each.
You need a sub that's 200 watts RMS with a 4 ohm single coil on each channel of that amp.
Sorry to confuse.

Here's the general rule about subs and amps: you need to try to match RMS ratings as close as possible. this will do two things for you 1) it will ensure that you are providing enough power to your subs and 2) it will ensure that you do not blow your subs.
Having an amp that is too "big" for your subs may possibly blow your subs. having an amp that is too "small" will underpower the sub, making it sound crappy.
For your question, any amp and sub combination will work, it's just that your specific combination will not work the best. I would go back to bestbuy and exhange your subs and amp for a combination where the RMS ratings are a little closer. If you are not confident in installing it, Besy Buy usually does free installs if you buy from there (with cost of parts).
You won't need any capacitor because your amp isn't drawing enough current so don't waste your money on one.
I have a 1000 watt RMS system that doesn't require a capacitor...Yours definitely won't.
If you do decide to keep this set up, it will probably work out fine, just be careful not to turn it up too loud because you risk blowing your subs. If you wire them one sub per channel at 4ohms you should be alright.

sure just have some one professional hook it up and tune the amp the subs are not 800 watt continuous they are 150w 800 is the max suspension before blowing don't push them pass 200 watts rms make sure the amp is set on 4 ohms

You don't want the two channel amp for subs. A mono amp is much better
