Can the insulated copper ground wire be placed next to the coax cable and share the same exterior wall fasteners down the side of the house?

Many people overlook grounding... so you're already doing better than most. Ideally, the new ground rod will be connected to the existing ground system that serves your electrical system.

Regarding wire next to coax, as JC says, yes that's fine.
