Lets start with hardware side of the question - SSD RAID and Yes your Mac mini can support it.
-
Your system two equal SATA III (6.0 Gb/s) ports, and can support two SSD's. RAID'd SSD are as fast this system can go as far as storage access.

Now the hard part... Apple's new file system (APFS) does not support RAID at this time. So you can't run High Sierra the best you can do is Sierra.
Even still you will getting better performance with the GUID/Extended (journaled) file system than what your HDD offered and RAID'ing the SSD will push it to the max.
