I got a fireball that has 6 fully grown pups on it with 4 more new pups just starting to form. This is all from the mother plant. Right now its planted in dirt and want to get rid of the dirt. Can I plant the mother plant in a pot of sand? Also is it cool to plant the pups in just foam to grow them out?

You can plant the mother in sand but it will probably rot. You're better off mounting it or planting it in a bark and charcoal mix. Yes you can stick the pup stolons into foam however they will probably root into it making it difficult to remove without damaging the plant.

Actually sand drains really well. its just super heavy.

for broms, cutting the roots to remove the plant is okay. They will grow new ones.

If you are just doing this for grow out, wouldn't they tend to grow faster is left attached to the mother plant?

Just throw it into a big pot with some hydroton/ cork mix and watch it grow. All of mine are potted and outside loving the spring weather here in VA.

To a certain point, yes. When they reach near full size, it'd be better to cut them off. That way the mother can grow more and they themselves can produce pups of their own.
