Yes. For that time period was an acceptable method.

If it isn't broke, do not fix it.
To effectively seperate grounding from the neutral you'll need a seperate bonding buss, which your existing panel may not support.
There may be other reasons for your reading 120V to the metalic box.
It was a common practice to run a bare copper conductor, stapled to the stud face and rather unceremoniously wrapped around a screw where the romex connector attached the romex to the box. There was, and still marginaly used, a friction clip used to attach the bare conductor to the box.
