I want to reinstall windows 8.1 on my computer and I would like to save the Foxfire browser as a program and just reinstall the Foxfire browser as I have it right now, is this even possible?

Of course. You would just need to back up your Firefox profile data first, install a fresh copy of Firefox on the new Windows 8.1 and restore the profile data there.

See Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles for more information.
