You would have to go over it with a some really fine sand paper, (not down to the metal or anything), just enough to take the gloss out of it. Clean the body thoroughly, all dust and debris. I would put a thin coat of filler primer just so it's perfectly smooth (allow to dry for at least three days), then apply your first coat, let this dry for a week or two (preferably in the sun), then apply a second coat and let it dry for another week. Buffing the new paint after it's cured for a few weeks will give it a nice finish. I would recommend having a pro there with you to guide you through it. Make sure the body is clean and dry between each coat. Dust or moisture will ruin a potentially beautiful paint job.
Yes you can, but I don't recommend it. Covering a factory paint job (if it's in good condition) is a horrible idea because the new paint never looks as great and usually has a lot of problems. I was going to do this with my car that I had bought last year because everyone who has my make/model has the same color. After talking to some people and doing some research, I found it's better to just stick with the original color.
You would most likely have to sand it down and prime it and then paint it.
