Is there any way to remove alternator without removing two mounting bolts which are stripped?

Most alternators are held in by 2 or 3 bolts. Some have nuts on the back side also. There is no way around these bolts, as they are what holds the alt in. If you are unsure whether or not they will go back in, then you can use Teflon tape or thread locker or even thread a small piece of wire through the hole to tighten the bolt as it goes in. Not removing the bolts requires taking the alt with the whole bracket it is mounted to out. That is no simple task as usually the A/C, Power Steering and other assorted pieces are mounted to that.

Will jb weld repair stripped bolt in Chevy venture belt tensioner?
When the belt tensioner fails, you have to stop almost immediately or the engine will overheat and suffer serious damage or destruction. I am assuming that the bolt itself is not stripped; the receiving mounting hole in the engine is stripped. And I am pretty sure that the mounting area is aluminum. Therefore, it should be fairly easy to tap the hole for an over-sized bolt. Select a tap that is just larger than the stripped bolt. I would not recommend the JB weld since if it fails, you are stuck without warning. Best of luck!
