Are they single or dual voice coil?  If you are not running them as subs, you really should not wire them as you are asking.  Stereo separation will be non existant.

I would not reccomend connecting a 2 ohm driver to any radio out there.  If it were a 4 ohm driver, then you could connect it as you were asking with no problems.  I know that the manufacturers say you can run their 2 ohm driver to any radio. I am not going to do it.

You can wire them in series and wire them as you asked in your original post. But you will lose all stereo separation from that set of speakers. It may not seem important to you, but you will be surprised.

So if I do wire them to 4ohms and from the head unit take the + right rear specker hook that too the speaker and then - left rear speaker hook and hook the to the neg on the speaker It wont damage the headunit right or shuld I just run them to say just the left or right side
