Could be a lot more trouble than you realize. Those foot switches used to carry the high beam current and they would eventually wear out and could cause the high and low beams to quit working. I suppose you can simply wire the switch to provide power to your high beam relay and that would be more reliable....
The other issue is the general road grime that the connector side would be exposed to. Plus, we drag all kinds of stuff into the cab with us so you'll have to make sure you keep the switch clean.
I am sure it's possible though.

Those switches are readily available for earlier Fords from the 50s on.....any auto parts store will have them....just ask for one for a '79 F250 and you'll have the switch, these are the same as the ones used in my old Mustangs, there are even rubber caps made for them (for convertible cars originally) I guess you could wire one in provided you could find out which wires to cut and splice into from the column mounted one, and then they just install with a couple of sheet metal screws to the floor......
