As long as you are not exceeding the 85 amps at 12 volts per diode max load then you can definitely use the configuration in your diagram.
I spoke with my contact at Roadmaster who said that the connections are not watertight but the internal components are. You would either need to find a way to make the connections watertight (as you mentioned in your diagram) or simply wipe the connections off if you were to go off-road with your 2011 Jeep Wrangler and get the diode(s) wet.
We have the diodes in a quantity of 1 # RM-790, 2 # RM-792, 3 # RM-793, or 4 # RM-794 depending on how many places you want to install it or if you would like to have spares.
