Lawrence, I know your post is old, but if I'm understanding you correctly, there is a simple fix:

Using some third-party app, separate / convert the audio from your video. (On a Mac, you can use Quicktime.)

Lay that audio below the Video track in Reaper, on another track.

Then just pull-down the volume of the video-audio track, to zero, but keep both tracks open.

You now have audio that's independent from the video. You can chop, move, whatever, and still render at the end.
