"Will there be enough clearance to get a deep socket plus ratchet head up in there..."

Yep. You might find a universal adapter on a 3/8" breaker bar works best. In fact, you may not need the universal adapter. With that switch (if it's anything like mine), all you need to do is break it free—like 1/16th-turn—and it should be finger tight from there.

Watch for the tiny metal gasket.

"...need to remove the lower crossmember and allow the trans to sag down?"

I've done several on my cars over the years — and for me, allowing the tranny to "droop" is very helpful.
