Greetings All !
Does anyone know how I can install multiple copies of RTW on my HD ? I'd like to install vanilla and a few other mods at the same time. Many thanks for your help !

Make copies of your Data folder for the different mods.
Or alternatively, save the space and use the Mod-Switcher (link in sig).

Epistolary Richard's modding Rules of CoolCool modders make their mods with the :mod command line switch
If they don't, then Cool mod-users use the Mod Enabler (JSGME)
Cool modders use show_err
Cool modders use the tutorials database
Cool modders check out the Welcome to the Modding Forums! thread
Cool modders keep backups

better to make a copy of the whole RTW folder, not just data. If you only copy data you have to rename it every time you want to play a different mod (it'll read the files in the folder that is still called "data"). And the files that are not in the data folder are few in filesize compared to the data folder, so it's not like you'll be wasting much more diskspace.
Mod-Switcher is a more elegant solution, but you have to be a little carefull with it cos if something goes wrong you still have to reinstall RTW (so keeping one extra backup folder could still be usefull)
