With the proper glue, the vinyl will adhere to the treated rough plywood with no noticable effects.

Post pictures when complete.

Be sure and put something between the treated plywood and your aluminum. The treated plywood will cause aluminum to corrode.

YES and make sure whatever you use will last. Glue doesn't stick to treated unless it is very dry. If it is fresh PT wait awhile or seal it first with PT sealer.
