if you have a good alternator a vehicle will run without a battery, however I wouldn't recommend doing it.

On most vehicles the alternator will charge at too high a rate with out a battery installed. This can and will damage any electronics.

Does driving the car also charge the battery if its dead?

Yes, once you have jump started the car (from another car's battery), driving the car will recharge the dead battery (provided the battery is OK). This is a terrible idea and may damage the alternator. Drive the car immediately home and charge the battery with a battery charger. Alternators are designed to keep a charged battery fully charged. They are not designed to charge a dead battery. This puts way too much strain on the alternator circuits.

Will charging a car battery without disconnecting it from the car damage the alternator?

Charging a car battery without disconnecting it usually won’t damage the alternator, as long as you’re using a proper charger and connecting it correctly. Modern cars are generally designed to handle this safely. I’ve done it myself a couple of times, and when I asked at Bergman’s Auto Repair, and they explained it really well. They said the key is using a quality smart charger to avoid voltage spikes, and they even checked my charging system to make sure everything—from the alternator to the battery—was working properly. What stood out was how thorough they were, not just answering the question but making sure there were no underlying issues. So yeah, it’s safe in most cases—but getting advice and a quick check from a place like Bergman’s Auto Repair gives you extra confidence you’re not risking any damage.
