If I customize a theme and load all of the mods on a local system can I just upload the whole theme folder to the site afterwards?

This probably wont work. Your best bet is to install a fresh copy of the theme you used to make the custom one. Once you do this, then simply go and overwrite all the files in that theme's directory.

From my experience, your forum will not recognize a new folder just "appearing" in the Themes directory. It must be installed first, and this requires the uploading of a zip file.

I suspected as much, thanks for the confirmation.
