I can't tell you whether or not to do something like this for the simple reason that I cannot HEAR your tracks.

In other words, they maybe could stand a bit of Normalization, perhaps only one or two of them might, or perhaps the composite might benefit from one single Normalization pass, or then again perhaps Normalization is not the proper tool at all for that particular set of tracks and we may elect to use an instance of Compression, again maybe only on some of the separate tracks, also maybe a Mastering Pass with the Compressor as well.

It may seem to be the easier path, looking for blanket recipes or routines that will deliver the magic goodstuff every time, but quite honestly I do not know of anything like that which can compete with trained mind, ears, knowledge, experience, measurement tools and time. YMMV -- and so will your sonic results.

That said, if you are using Realtracks, the hard truth is that they need very little massaging to sound good, the pgmusic demos are done and posted "as-is" right out of BiaB.
