I have seen it done. I don't think it would be all that hard as long as you can fabricate a bracket to hold the alternator.

As far as wiring, as long as your wiring is in good condition, which I doubt if it's the original wire, it will be able to carry the current of the 12 volt system without a problem. It will be heavier than a 12 volt system because you will be pulling less current. You will have to use drop resistors before all your dash components and other items like the heater motor so you don't burn them out. You can easily change all the lights to 12 volt equivalents.
