So, while I can't figure out {yes I looked at all of the Link Shell Extension documentation} how to make it work as described above, it does work wonderfully for at least keeping 2 junctioned folders on Dropbox that I can easily copy/paste between.
Kudos to Sasky for providing the link!!

I accomplish it with symbolic links.
- cut and paste your current addons folder from your main system to Dropbox/OneDrive
- right click addons folder in Dropbox/OneDrive, select "Pick Link Source"
- right click in empty space in "Documents/Elder Scrolls Online/live/" and select "Drop As -> Symbolic Link"
- accept the UAC prompt
- done
repeat from step 2 on any other machine. Also make sure your dropped symlink is named correctly (should be Addons)
