yeah you can do a rear disc conversion. you need the srt-4 hub/knuckle asembly, caliper, brake line to do it. cheap from a junk yard.

Or you can use the rear brakes from a Neon R/T, 2nd Gen Neon w/ rear discs, 1st Gen Neon w/ rear discs, or the PT Cruiser.

yes it can be done on your own , not idea what they usually go for.

If you have a first gen your not going to see any benefit from going to rear discs, other than better looks and easyer maintenance. Of couse im talking about the first gen rears, no idea if the others are better.
