Was the exhaust loud always or did just get that way and is the sound coming from the back or towards the front? The reason I ask is because it could more of an exhaust leak and deading the sound is not a solution for that. The other is the age and condition of the cat. When they get old and clogged you will get a lot of noise up front because the engine is sucking hard for more air to flow but you would also probably feel a power lag. If you think the exhaust is fine then maybe you just need a resonator added. Also do you have an aftermarket header? The reason? A poor weld can open up once the header gets really hot and that will make some noise too and then close back up after the header cools down. ( I had one that didi that and it drove me crazy trying to figure out)

As for sound deading, sure you can do the whole inside including the floor boards. I run a camero exhaust on my car and man at 3200 rpms it get lound inside even with a resonator. So I put 2 layers of dyno mat down from just under the rear seats all the way to the hatch.
