Stupid question-Can you power a powered Sub with an Amp?

I have a space problem, and need help-

I have purchased an Infinity Kappa 5 Amp,and an Infinity Kappa 120.9W Sub-the problem is that no matter how I try, I cannot make a 12" Sub fit in my Car, so, I am looking at under seat Subs because of size (I know, they ****)-

So, I'm looking at the Infinity powered Subs (10"), and I think I can make them fit-the problem is that they are powered, and I'm running everything through the Kappa 5 (5 channel) Amp (it is Bluetooth)-I am thinking of buying two of the Basslinks (if that will help, and I can wire them up?)-

The Sub Channel in my Kappa 5 is 100 watts RMS x 4 + 350 watts RMS x 1 at 2 ohms-can anyone tell me if this will (or won't) work? Thank you very much for the help!

 
The powered subs have amps built into them. If the amp that you already have has RCA OUTPUTS ( not inputs) on it then you can run those to the sub amp. If it doesnt have rca outputs then technically yes. You can remove the power wires and the speaker wires from the powered sub and just use the power from the 5 channel.
