SolutionThe "safe" answer is , of course, power down all components but the "real world" answer is that that would make long uptimes very difficult. Your point about the controller being self-terminating misses the mark. The controller can supply one termination but the bus requires exactly two terminations but if there is nothing else on the bus, it really doesn't matter. As part of the replacement routine, you should do an ioscan anyway to make sure that the new device is "visible".
Operations like this really point out the importance of having a "sandbox" so that you could try out your questionable procedures without risk of clobbering something important.

Re: Removing a SCSI DLT drive on line ???
I would not suggest you to remove the drive online. You can probably do this without affecting the system, but if in case a scsi reset goes into the bus then you'll be left with a hung system.
However if the drive is a hot plug one, you can remove it. We have some hot pluggable DLTs that we have removed without any problem. Just power it off and plus it out. Replace with a new one, wait for a few seconds and power it on.
Hope this helps.
