Dimitri,

Offensive line set up sounds good.

WRS : how deep (refering to the LOS, yards) on the field can they be positioned on start ? Can I put them directly on side of the linemen, or should I keep a space between them ?

I would keep a space between them. Technically that is what distinguishes a WR from a TE. Most rules specify 5 yards off the LOS. 1 yard is all that is required by NFL Rules.

TE : can I put it directly on side of linemen, to form a sort of 6 linemen, or should I keep a space between the 5 linemen and the other ones ?

TE can be lined up directly on side of linemen. Again, technically that is what distinquishes a TE from a WR. I think NFL RUles specify a TE lined up beside a lineman also has to maintain the 1 yard off the LOS if lined up directly on side of a lineman effectively becoming aan interior lineman.

RBs (hb and fb) : for now, we agreed to place them between the hash marks AND/OR between the linemen line width, forming a "square" (from left side of left tackle to right side of the right tackle), behind the rear side of QB's base. Do you think it's right/legal ?

Also known as the tackle box. Definetly legal.

How deep (yards) can I put my Rbs refering to the LOS ?

Most rules specify no more than 20 yards behind the LOS within the tackle box.
