You could sure do that and the size would be very nice. But there would be no bass - even the Alpha 8 is pretty light in the bottom end. Of course, you can make the box larger and push the extension somewhat deeper. But even then, you can't go too far before you run out of gas.
Don't take this as a dismissal though. If you run subs, then you can keep the main speakers size down and still have some extension. In a way, this is like a three-way speaker but the woofer is detached. It allows you the flexibility of a variety of placement options and it also gives an opportunity to exploit the multisub approach. That's definitely a plus.
