Can I fund a Traditional IRA with pretax dollars?

I'm not sure if the rules stipulate I have to use after-tax income to fund a traditional IRA.

There isn't a mechanism set up to fund your Trad. IRA with pre-tax dollars - you have to wait and take the appropriate deduction when you file your taxes.

No, you can only take a deduction on your taxes if you are below the income limits.
