If you copy your entire Rome:Total war folder (as I have gold edition it also includes BI) to some other location, and then install EB to that location, will it run normally?

yep, it uses mod switch so... none of the vanilla RTW should be changed during the instalation :sweatdrop:, so backing up vanilla files isn't that important... at least in my opinion :sweatdrop:
Yes. You can create as many copies of vanilla as you prefer to install various mods. Personally I have 7 RTW installations:
* BI 1.4 - for copying in case I find a mod I want to try
* BI 1.6 - for copying in case I find a mod I want to try
* EB 1.1 - of course
* EB1 internal version
* FATW 2.5 - recommended
* RTW Vanilla 1.2 - for copying in case I find a mod I want to try
* RTW Vanilla 1.5 - for copying in case I find a mod I want to try
Edit: Actually, it is recommended to install EB into a copy of a clean 1.5 RTW, just as you propose. That way you won't have to install any vanilla stuff if you screw something up and need to reinstall.
Thank you.
