re: Could Johnson be charged for shooting into an occupied vehicle?

Let me put it another way.

Miller is struck by one of the bullets and dies.


Johnson is then certainly civilly liable without a doubt. And since Miller has already been found to not be guilty of a crime, Johnson should/would be criminally charged.

No.

In Alabama, if you are found to have used deadly force in self defense you are immune from criminal and civil liability.

Code of Alabama 13A-3-23. See d(1).
