I have a Raspberry Pi 3 running Raspbian. I want to put a new operating system on the SD but I also want to keep all my old config files and things for future reference and use. I do have another SD card but I don't want to use it. If possible, is there a way to copy the entire operating system onto the other SD and have it still bootable? Is there a way to do it from the RPi itself?

Use the SD Copy
in the GUI of the latest Raspbian to copy the card. This works even to different sized cards (obviously if big enough for the files).
dd
command of a unix system and clone the complete sd card to your harddrive. you can restore the sd card bydd
