Switching from Manjaro to EndeavorOS, is there a way to preserve my home directory?

Copy them to an external drive or another computer, copy them back after.
Chances are you're gonna wanna wipe the partition table on your switch over so I'd just copy them out then back in. No point over complicating things.

Just to add: some folders' files might need modifications in the new system, e.g. .config/
