On default installations, Iceweasel plugins are installed in a common 
path (such "/usr/lib/iceweasel/plugins") and not on each user's profile, 
so AFAIK, moving/copying a profile (~./mozilla) should not interfere with 
this.

Problems can arise when transferring profiles between different browser 
releases, though.
