My understanding is that even if I have an application deployed in-place, if I redeploy it, the deployer will delete the current directory structure, so I would need to copy the current directory structure in any event.
What does the deployer do? Does it simply create the config.ser, config.info, etc files?

You should be able to just modify the application.xml, add the new web app to the EAR structure, and run the deployer tool to redeploy the EAR file. If you are not deploying in-place, then I'm not sure you can avoid copying out the EAR. Someone else might have more knowledge in this area.
