After I JB and install XBMC can I use DNLA on my ATV2. I have a Silicon Dust HD Prime and would like to stream my cable channels.
If XBMC does not support this for the ATV2 what can I use? Thanks in advance!

Not working right now due to a bug unless you downgrade to v12.0
However, you can only watch SD channels, even when it is work, because the ATV2 can't handle HD MPEG2.

Will I need anything special within XMBC to view DNLA content?

When it works, it works really well and nothing special is needed. Basically you just add it as a video source under Videos -> Files -> Browse -> UPnP
And that gives you a listing of all channels.
However, in v12.1 and v12.2, some DLNA stuff broke. It will be fixed in the future and for the future release of v12.3. So you can either use a nightly build or use v12.0 if you want it to work now instead of waiting for v12.3.
