It's not as simple as the battery alone - you have to consider things like the alternator, fuses and sufficient gauge wiring to handle the extra ampage. I would suggest talking to a Car Audio specialist, or in dedicated ICE forums. Try here.
You will be able to calculate the power consumption of components and compare them to what is provided by the alternator, but again unless someone here knows them, you're best asking in a dedicated ICE forum/store.
What I can say is this - if you're going to use 2 subs, then you don't need the 6x9s. They will just muddy the sound coming from the front and subs. Especially if you mount them in the parcel shelf. It'll just sound plain awful.
