St.Albans end yes easy, all would be needed is a contination then
right turn, up the hill, into city centre. Steep climb though nothing
beyond tram capability.

Naturally uk.railway will demand it *must* run to St Albans City but I
see no partcular need to do that if serving the town centre is better
especially if Watford line gets enhanced service.

Watford end would need to bridge or tunnel the WCML to reach to town
centre.
