An alternate but not so nice way of doing the top would just be to make the top in two pieces with 45 degree edges. The back piece will be plenty big enough to hold the box together structurally. Alternatively the circular saw will be able to do the same as a track saw set up with a suitable straight edge.
If you cut a extra length the same height as the sides you can use it as a support to keep things square while assembling. Dowels will be absolutely fine, as will pocket holes, or screwed and glued with/out plugs,. I think Rutlands do a self centering dowel jig for ~30 which will be absolutely fine.
