Yup! You will need a line converter to do the install. They are pretty cheap and work pretty well.
Just splice in the line converter to the rear speaker wiring, then plug your RCA'* into the line converter then to your amp, then your subs to your amp. Whala........ Subs on a factory HU.

But an aftermarket HU will provide the best EQ
you dont have to lose the rear speakers either, you can just splice into them and run them to the amp and speakers. so you dont lose either
