If you transition to disk brakes from drum brakes you will need to transition both axles at the same time because the master cylinder will require a higher psi. If you are adding brakes for the first time, then you can do one axle at a time without any issue. The Kodiak Disc Brake Kit - 11" Rotor - 8 on 6-1/2 - Dacromet - Leaf Spring - 10K Rockwell # K2HR958QD11 you referenced is a great option for your 9K Dexter axles.
Then for the disc brake compatible Electric Over Hydraulic actuator I recommend the HydraStar Electric Over Hydraulic Actuator for Disc Brakes - 1,600 psi # HBA16. I've attached a help article to assist.
