    Yes the door speakers are powered by the amp. The dash is powered directly from the head unit.

    You sound like you're about a tech savy as me LOL. I think I'm just going to take the unit I bought in to an audio store and them what I want and to make it happen.

    Your Alpine backup camera will work with the OEM backup camera with the proper adapter, if needed.
    You'll need to run the Alpine mic for Bluetooth, but that's pretty easy.

    You'll also need a steering wheel control interface, most of us use Maestro RR with the proper Toyota adapters.

    It might improve the sound out of the dash.
    Some things to keep in mind:
    The front door speakers are woofers - low and mid signals sent from the under seat amp.
    As @Tundra234 stated, the 3 dash speakers are powered off the HU run as mids and tweeters and will be powered off your Alpine HU.
