If you mean to split your current 'e' partition into three pieces, 'e', 
'f' and 'g', then go right ahead. As long as you only reallocate the
blocks presently used by 'e', the other partitions will not be affected by
re-writing the disklabel.

To be on the safe side though, I'd backup the whole drive, not just /usr.
