Your plan seems like its the easiest way to make the repair for the floor but investigate the cause.
Floor support is possible I guess but...…
Most rv floors are solid enough to support people w/o feeling soft due to lack of support, even with age.
Is the soft floor near the entrance door ? That's a very common place for water to intrude and travel before it settles in a low point .
RV doors with glass are prone to leaks, water runs down inside the door then seeps under the layers of flooring at the sill plate.
Correct fix is take the door apart and seal the glass but some people including myself just seal the edge of the glass where it meets the frame. I do that on every new rv I buy.
