I used to have a 2009 F350 and read that service manual extensively. From what I recall *every* service activity could be completed with the cab on, the issue was that for some more extensive work it was easier to remove the cab if you had a two post lift available. The cab removal was only like a 30 minute process once you had done a few.
As far as the alternators go, I had the single and never had to replace it, though I did see the idler placed where the second alternator would go. As long as you fully remove both batteries so no chance of accidentally shorting things in tight quarters you should have no real issue replacing them cab-on. Removing the battery tray may well improve access a lot and should take like 30 seconds and a few bolts.
Removing the wheel well liner provides a good deal of access and is also very easy. I had to do that when wiring heavy aux power to an inverter and a winch and put a contactor to shut off that power under the fusebox as it was the only mounting location I could find that left the unfused cable to the battery nice and short.

But, I want to talk about my tractor! We didn't even own a lawnmower, and all of a sudden we had enough grass to feed all the starving children of the bovine world. Naturally, I talked
