I'm not sure if I understand. But if you get
A1
A12
A100
A2
A23
A3

that IS a "true alpha numeric sort" and that is what I get in this example

If you need a sort in a "numeric" sense:
A1
A2
A3
A12
A23
A100

You have to split the column, f.e. like this:

=LEFT(A1;1)
and
=VALUE(MID(A1;2;LEN(A1)))

Then you use the both new columns (menu: data/sort) for the sort
