You can't runeforge the item but you can enchant it. Some people get a BoA weapon ad just enchant crusader even though it has a lesser effect. I leveled a DK without BoA weapon, but had BS so made weapons and up till level 77 had no problem weapon wise.
If you are planning on leveling another alt in the future to who the BoA weapon will be useful Id say go for it otherwise as from a point of someone who leveled without it, its no big problem. Weapons are easily come by to level

I think it's not worth it, considering you start off with a
great Axe
at 60, and have easily questable upgrade at
65
,
70 (technically available at 68)
, and
75
. All of these can be runeforged.

Are we to assume you already have the chest and shoulders? If you don't, those are much better than the axe.

I think the Arc Reaper is definitely worth it. Never having to upgrade or swap weapons or anything is convenient. You're going to be getting decent armor from quests, but weapons are a little more difficult to come by.
Plus, you know your damage will usually be pretty effective for your level with the BoA if you know what you're doing.
I'd do it if I were leveling a Ret Paladin or a new DK.

Starter weapons can easily get you into Northrend. Then its a short time till you can get a blue axe from a quest in the tundra (Thassarian's quest line), or run UK a few times for Ingvar's Cleaver. Those will last until you pick up Deraged Waraxe from the amphitheater of anguish which will last you till you craft Titansteel Destroyer or pick up Skull-Clad Cleaver from H HoL or Edge of Ruin from H ToC.
Even if you never get lucky on quest drops, there are 3 straight weapons you can progress to 80 with gotten from quests.
Now, if you do ever plan on leveling a warrior or ret pally from scratch, go for the Reaper now as those two classes will also benefit from the shoulders and chest you're getting.
