 * I know how to edit the core `posts.php` but can I utilise the “Adding your custom
   profile templates” structure to keep changes on updates?

 * It addresses your question. The template that needs to be edited is templates/
   profile/posts.php
 * Please send us a ticket for further questions. We provide our support via our
   ticketing system.
 * Thanks

 * Do I keep that folder structure in my theme as well?

 * This is not a site specific question, it’s a clarification question on your website’s
   instructions.
