In all uses and contexts, "all right" is the only correct spelling.

Note: The spelling "alright" dates from the late 19th century and appears as a variant spelling in the Oxford English Dictionary, but this variant spelling is considered "wrong" and is not to be used in Standard English [Shorter OED 6th edition].
