If you installed the kernel with make install, the config is already
backed up to /boot.

Why remove the current version only to reinstall it? 
emerge --prune gentoo-sources will remove all but the latest.

It's also faster to remove the directories from /usr/src before unmerging
them. You'll need to remove them manually anyway as unmerge -C/P doesn't
remove the compiled files.
