I don't think you can currently, it's been on the wish list for a while. What I have done is create a custom 'Name Change' fact to record the Alternative names (in addition to the 'proper' place). Which means I can also put the reason for the occurrence and I then get a nice sentence in reports.

In the Individual Summary Report and Family Group Sheet, you can use Options... to change the Show/Hide for Alternative Names.
