No, they will not but I have a custom fit set that does. They are the Curt item # C16427-204. This set of rails is industry standard so they will work great with your Curt Q20 Slider. The brackets are custom fit and install in pre-existing holes in your Ram's frame. This not only saves you on installation time but it also means you don't have to drill holes in your truck's frame.
I have linked an installation video below to show you how to get these rails installed.
To make towing with a 5th wheel easier, I recommend adding the Curt 5th Wheel/Gooseneck Custom Wiring Harness item # C56070. This harness puts a 7-way connector in the bed of your truck and allows you to keep the one on your bumper. This makes hooking up to your 5th wheel trailer easier and more convenient.
