It can indeed be done, my first grow i used just 12 of those lights to cover an even larger area and 20 plants, with the setup you described ,if enclosed, u will definitely need some type of exaust... Mylar can be found online or u could use an emergency blanket from walmart and sometimes they even sell mylar wrapping paper like for presents.

I'm sure it can but you're going to wish you made your box bigger than that!

Yes you need ventilation.

I would put the 2 fans on top and the one intake in the back middle about 6-12" up. Heat rises.
