No don't see it. If I were to that the alternator wouldn't be part of the equation.
There only is that one question in the original post:
I am looking for information on a total electric air conditioner for my 77 240d.
One can only make assumptions to what the intended use might be. My general thought is I wouldn't do it as it would have to be cheaper to replace the entire CCU in the D then to make to revolutionize it with electric AC

On total electric vehicles the heating/AC in controlled by a seperate bank of batteries and is charged when the vehicle is plugged in for a normal recharge cycle or if equiped with a extended range genset. 12/24VDC with AMP rating as low as 5

The largest BTU rating AC I can find in the MB line up is the Sprinter @ 13,500btu's
