Would this mean that Agnew would become President upon Nixon’s resignation?

That's how the constitutionally-dictated presidential line of succession works, yes.

If so, what would President Agnew be like?

An oaf without astute political skills who just delegates his foreign policy to Kissinger & domestic policy to advisers who actually have brains.

Would Reagan primary Agnew like he primaried Ford?

If he senses blood in the water (i.e., a ripe enough opportunity to potentially win) as he did in real life, then I see no reason why he wouldn't.
