No guarantee as those rims were made long before the advent of tubeless tires, but I've got many friends who have successfully and without problems put tubeless tires on Packard rims back to 1941 and perhaps earlier. A bit of sealant on the rivet heads couldn't hurt as a preventative.

Buying the correct OEM sized tires is no problem, though they will most likely be tube-type. As to radials, plenty of size conversion charts around, or any tire retailer or supplier worth his salt should be able to advise. Or go to Coker's website, I believe the recommendations for size interchanges are there.
