You wanted 10 cm precision, right? If you use time-of-flight to compute 
the position, this requires about 0.3 ns timing precision and 
synchronization, if each Tx/Rx tower times its own sending and 
reception. You could get around the synch problem by cabling the Tx/Rx 
signals from and to a central Tx/Rx, but you still have to be able to 
measure the time differences between the three Rx signals to that 
precision. I doubt if that can be done with standard RFID Tx/Rx electronics.

Some discussion, negative and positive, here (part of the result of a 
web search for "RFID triangulation"):

There are some references to fancier electronics that can provide good 
spatial resolution.
