It may seem to make sense to "do it while it's out" but it is far from a quick simple task and tranny-to-block leaks aren't common and are usually only minor if they ever develop.
The car has relatively few miles from what you report. Shouldn't be a problem.
There's a knack to separating automatics from the motor, for which you could search on here. Then there's all the cleanup of both surfaces, with engine hanging in the air and tranny rolling around on the floor. Scrupulous cleanliness called for. Don't bang or bend the oil pickup. Proper sealing compound, applied everywhere called for. Then lowering the motor back onto the tranny, with nothing wanting to sit level - - not my idea of a simple job.
