That 60mm macro is still a 60mm macro. It does not "morph" into a 90mm lens. All that changes is the equivalent Field Of View (FOV). The magnification ratio does not change, nor does the minimum focus distance... While a 60mm is good for static subjects, it's not too good for most mobile subjects (like insects) as you have to get to close which makes lighting the subject hard as well as scaring off many insects by being too close...I use a mid 1980's manual focus 105mm macro lens for almost all of my macro shots on my D7100.... (see examples on my Flickr link)... While I own an older manual focus 55mm F2.8 Micro Nikkor, I seldom use it...

I am sure that if your photographic expertise is good enough those lenses you presently own should fit very nicely the subjects that you have in mind to photograph.
I had a Tokina 12-24 f4 lens and I was very pleased with its quality. It had all the wide angle focal lengths I needed. Your 18-140 is a very versatile lens and the 60mm macro using the crop factor of 1.5 for the APS sensor of your D7100 will give you an equivalent of 90mm with a full frame camera, enough working distance for most nature subjects.
