If you can find fenders that give a good line, sure. What size are the tires?

Yeah you'll be ok. I tried to put a set of p55s on the stumpy with 1.5" tires and it looks like complete **** no matter what I do.

Should I get a Langster Steel frame + Carbon fork or Jamis Sonik frameset? The jamis is the clear winner in terms of geo for the drome, but I've been wanting a new frameset.

Should I convert my singlespeed cross/commuter bike into a dinglespeed? Currently have a 42x16 setup. Thinking of picking up the WI Dos Eno 16/19 freewheel and a 39t chainring. So the setup would be 42x16 (71 gear inches) for onroad and 39x19 (55 gear inches) for light offroad.
