The Android version underlying Jolla C / Aqua Fish is already 5.1, as you can check e. g. running AIDA64. Unfortunately it won't help running Android 5.1 apps since they run on Alien Dalvik which is currently at 4.4.4.

There are no any android underlying. Sailfish OS is NOT based on Android. It only utilizing android drivers blobs via libhybris to make it work on your pretty devices without writing own drivers for each device.

sfdroid contains full android rootfs running in chroot.
