theoretically you could run a preamp output to the stock amp, but I don't know that you could hook it up easily as the stock amp doesn't have RCA plugs like regular amps do. Besides that the stock amp doesn't really provide much power, the small box under the seat is likely the amp in question.
The new deck should have more than enough power to power the speakers.
All you need to do is get the signal to them, 2 ways to do it: splice from the amp harness to the deck or run wire from the deck to the speakers.
I went harness to deck and utilized the factory wires from the amp to the speakers. At least until I installed my 5 channel amp, then I ran wire from that to each speaker, but that is a whole nother project.
