I am purchasing a Kicker 600.4 Multi Channel Amp. Can I run my front Speakers and Sub off the AMP and run my rear speakers off of my Headunit? Its a Kenwood Excelon 859.

Shouldn't be any problem. It is a pretty common setup. Bridge two of the channels for the sub and then run the other two channels to your front speakers.

Get a single 4 ohm or dual 2 ohm sub. So that you can use the amp at it's most efficient and useful power level for the sub channel.

very common to do this, also being that your rear speakers main purpose is just for fill it should sound pretty good as well.

Use the dual 2Ohm this way you can run the amp 4Ohm mono and that should deliver 300watts I believe. I have them in stock too !
