I think this is a bad idea for a lot of reasons. I think a better route is to make a small change in the name of the project so that you can differentiate between different versions. For example:
Project v1
Project v2
Project v3
Project FINAL
would all go in a folder titled
Project 5-2018
For backup purposes, you'd never want different files to have have the exact same name, or a project to have the exact same name as a file it contains. I have used this same process for edits, for sound mixes, and even for writing. No question, everybody works differently and different methods work for different people, but I think you have to be careful on how databases look at identically-named items.
