VirtualBox inside a VM is not going to work, at least not with x64. It might
work with x86 (32b).
Virtualization for x64 generally requires virtualization extensions (VT-x or
so), but they aren't available inside a Qubes VM. Maybe some patches can add
support for it (look for “nested HVM” or “n

I don't see how it would help. And I am not even sure what would you hibernate

another one.
On pausing VMs: Actually, even if you just suspend and resume the whole system,
all VMs get unpaused.
Xen actually has some restore capability, at least for PVs and maybe also for
HVMs. This one is actually
