Correct. Any 4wd 99-00 transmission will bolt up to your transfer case. The VF2A (standard j-shift) and VF3AM (multimode) have the same bolt patterns/etc and will interchange to any 96-02 4wd 4Runner transmission.
To answer your other question above, you can remove transmission and transfer case as one unit or you can separate the two to make it less cumbersome. If you are having to keep your current transfer case I would separate the 2 while it's in the truck, but if you decide to keep them together remove the bottom 3 transfer case to transmission nuts so they won't be blocked when you have it all on the ground after removal.
