No, your new stereo isn't likely to draw so much power that your alternator can't keep up. Despite some outrageous advertised peak power claims from some stereo equipment manufacturers, the average wattage is fairly low for all but multiple monster subwoofer setups. With those, most of the power goes into heating up the amplifiers, and not into delivered music power.
