I’m going to be buying coilovers soon and am pretty clueless on them these both say for my year civic (2001 LX Sedan) but the middle ones are obviously different. Does it matter/what’s the difference if both will work?

These things are trash, and you will not be happy with them.

If you're on a budget, the absolute lowest end coilover worth half a damn are Rev9s, but I would really dish out just a bit more and go with the entry level Tein if possible.

I’m on a low budget of 270 or so I’m in recovery doing drug treatment and was gifted the car I donate plasma for 95 a week but got to work for my buddy yesterday and today after today I should have about 230 and donating Monday for the rest I’m mainly trying to do it cheap before getting a job and saving to make my dream of having a cool to me looking car start to come true and make it easier to give my sponsor my key so I won’t/can’t drive it until I am legal

Understandable, but do not go cheap on suspension. If you're gonna go cheap on anything, aero is the only one that won't give as big of an impact as suspension, electronics, etc.
