My SL account name just exceeds the 24 characters many developers have allowed in scripts ??

Is it possible for LIndens to modify my name.... to shorten it to be under the 24 character cap??

Usually the best way to get a name change is to create a new account.  However, I suppose you could create a support ticket and ask.

No.  Your user name is permanent.  It can never be changed.

BTW, the 24 character limit that you are talking about is probably the system-imposed limit on the length of a string that can be used for button labels in dialogs.  The only way that a scripter can beat that is to deliberately cut your name short before using it.  That's a minor nuisance for scripters -- easy to do, but an extra step that most scripters ignore because names that long are extremely rare.  Some scripts are written to accept Display Names, but those are problematic for merchants and club owners because they are not unique and can cause mistaken identities.
