Do I have to load this font first?
You have to tell XeLaTeX what the symbol \Geneva stands for, for
example with \newfontfamily.

However, this has two problems. First, it prompts for both owner and

Make a virtual font.
This would work with pdfTeX but not with XeTeX, which does not

I'd use another font instance for the small caps and the old-style

Not really. It's more of an inability to imagine something else, which
is not complicated.
How would one go about accomplishing that?
Writing code that fits into xdvipdfmx and augments it.

Did you update to the newest version of bidi (and other packages) with
