Welcome to the world of millipedes! I'd say your milli's and roaches should be OK, but I'd be cautious as I've heard that the roaches can be damaged by the foul liquid milli's secrete. As for breeding, it's not complicated at all. If you have a mating pair, all you have to do is take care of them well and let 'em rip. If you want to prevent babies then you need to separate the males from the females. Sexing pedes isn't actually too hard, the 7th segment should be replaced with little gonopods on the underside if the pede is a male, and if the pede is female then they should just have an ordinary 7th segment. I find that quick way of sexing is to look for a "gap" in the legs. If you do get babies you can try dropping off some "excess" at a pet store or the like. I've read that dolfusii (of which I might order soon, come to think of it) are a pretty shy species, so they may be underground for quite a while. Obviously, don't dig them up etc. ;3

Funnily enough, I actually KEEP dofussi now. He goes through phases of staying underground for eternities, and then staying up for months on end trying to mate with everything that moves. :p
