the 2 outside are on mine, the 2 center vents are open all the time (though mine seem clogged as they flow nothing)
They are interchangeable, but stock the two outside can close.
I put closeable registers in all of them. The mid two are normally not closeable.
Decades ago I was having problems with engine running hot and I noticed that if I turned on the cabin heater to hot and fan full blast, the engine would cool a bit more.
But doing that when it’s hot outside is brutal inside—-
So I got two new closeable air registers and popped them in the center and shut off all registers except the passenger.
Then when engine would get hot, I’d roll down the passenger front window, shut all the registers except the passenger side, aim it out the open window- and turn the heater on full blast.
Helped a lot and I didn’t get scorched inside.

Just turn the vent sideways and reach in and pull it out. No need to disassemble the dash. May want to lubricate the bezel around the edge so they don't crack. Then just shove the closeable vents in.

No, only the housing is bolted. Just pull out the ball shaped vent.
Yes, you can unbolt the housings. Eliminate the chance of cracking the housing.
And, iirc, just loosen the nuts and rotate the housings off the studs.
