Keyclone/WoW have the nice feature to remember account names...

But, is it possible to use this feature if I only have 1 installation/folder of WoW?

Have you tried using keyklone and automatic input?
Anyway, 4boxing with same folder? You shoud really make 4 folders..

Using one folder for 4 wows is fine. I use keyclone which opend 4 separate instances of the game and each one with its on account name prepopulated.

Aren't there flags you can add to the target of a short cut to have your account name? That way you can have 4 different shortcuts to the same wow.exe that have the name of 4 different accounts?

To expand, it's stored in the game config.
You could make a batch file that copied over a configuration file and launched the game, you'd just need to maintain 4 separate copies of the game config with the appropriate account name in each one. Then a shortcut to the appropriate batch file.
Pro tip for free, you could do it with 1 batch file and pass in some param to select between accounts, and use select case (or whatever the heck MS DOS uses) instead of 4 batch files.
