I found 2 1989 turbo grand prix in my local junk yard. I noticed that the front breaks had twin piston calipers on them. will they fit/work on a firebird?

Interesting question, to which I have no answer. According to the following, however, the caliper is iron (made by Delco-Moraine). The rotor is size is about the same as well. Hopefully, someone else will chime in. Keep us posted.
