Replacing axles is no fun at all.
It’d be easier to file a flat section on the stripped side, and secure it via a clamping torque arm.
As long as your dropouts aren’t sprung outwards, requiring nuts on both sides to compress the assembly, the wheel will remain centred.

Can't tell for sure, but the axle appears welded to the stator support. If it is, you'll probably need a machine shop to replace it for you.
If it's pressed in and keyed, then you probably just need some form of hydraulic press or similar to get it out, if so you'll need to make or find a tube that can be used to press against the stator support's core right at the ring around the axle to compensate for the axle being pusehd out, or the support will deform.
If it just has c-clips holding it in, it's pretty easy to change.
