I don't think you can, I think the Showman is 8 ohms... not 100% sure though.

It depends on whether you have a single or Dual Showman. The single Showman has an 8 Ohm output. The Dual Showman has a 4 Ohm. The 4 Ohm could handle the 2 ohms even though it's mismatched, but I wouldn't recommend the 8 Ohm OT into a 2 Ohm load.

Sure! Go buy a Weber Z-Matcher and you can hook any head to any cab. Best thing I ever bought

Not sure how to tell if it's a dual showman or not. I saw a couple of dual showman's that don't say dual on the front. It's a 1965 ,85 watts ,4 6l6 if that helps
