Is it just plot armor or is there some sort of force sense that allows them to know when a bolt is coming from directly behind them?

The laser guns all make a big noise, and I believe there's a thing called force speed.

Same as any super hero, the use super powers. So yes, it's plot armour. Anything that has super powers is actually plot armour.
