If so, how difficult is this install and do I need a new driveshaft?

there is no such thing as original 9" for a 65 mustang. So for this you'd have to go down the route of a aftermarket weld job like mine or similar if you ever needed a 9".
As for when you buy a 69 mustang, if you find a car that original cam with a big block it might already have a 9" built in from factory
