It's common practice to fit the extruder drives on the towers, so you could fit one on each tower. With any luck, the sideways forces exerted by the Bowden tubes will mostly cancel out.
To handle the extra mass of the hot end, you might need to use thicker than normal carbon fibre tubes. 6mm tube is commonly used, and I use 7mm tube on my delta.
How is the Diamond normally mounted to the carriage assembly? It's hard to tell from the images on the Wiki, but it looks to me that you might be able to sandwich the effector between the fan and the fan duct, with a hole cut in the effector for the airflow.
I am interested in fitting a Diamond hot end to my delta too,.
