Hmmm. On a manual tranny car that is on a flat surface, you can pull the axles without oil splilling any oil. The oil isn't supposed to sit on the axles or they would constantly leak.
I would figure the same for an auto tranny.

But most likely the guy had the front of the car jacked up. I have changed axles before without any spills. Just change one axle at a time while ONLY jacking up one side at a time.
