The Elven Alliance is a "-mod command" mod,.
What that means is that a big file is placed in your BFME User Files, and a extra short cut is created which tells the game to use the mod. No program files are touched.
If SOTS works in the same way, which someone will need to clarify, then you can have both installed at the same time.
In fact as long as the Program Files are not modified, you can have as many "-mod command" type mods installed as you want
However something you need to be careful about is that the game sometimes doesnt like unknown factions in the user profile data. For instance, trying to go to the skirmish menu on SOTS could crash the game if it has a problem with the Elven faction from TEA being mentioned in the profile data. This can be worked around though, just have a different profile for each mod.
Hope that helps

You can't play both mods at the same time if that's what you're asking. You can either play Elven Alliance or you can play SotS... there are no tools or programs that let you play elves vs hobbits.

wrong tool 
It might've worked, if I or Cel didn't change any files already in the game, but since we did edit some, like Playertemplate ans so on, it won't work Chances are very very low
