Yup the HK amp is known to run extremely hot and there have been threads about it overheating and shutting off when running aftermarket upgraded subs. So it is probably not a good idea to completely shut those vents.
Btw I have never seen those vents in person since I haven't gotten a chance to pull apart my car, but how sizeable is the gap to the outside?
