You can only rebook up to 12 months from the original ticket issue date which gives you about a month of slack to roll it forward if you book 11 months out so this won't buy you much.
Alaska has claimed that they will give notice before changing their award charts so I would take them at their word (for 6 months or so) and not be overly concerned about rolling forward a month at a time, especially since it sounds like your dates are flexible.
