The Dons gained 12 points from a possible 15 in their opening five games.
However, they have since slipped to 16th in the league table having failed to win any of their last eight games.
Before joining MK Dons, Alexander spent 18 months with Scottish Premiership side Motherwell until he left by mutual consent in July 2022.
He also spent two years with Salford City, the club co-owned by former Manchester United stars Nicky Butt, Ryan Giggs, Paul Scholes and the Neville brothers.

Alexander was sacked and replaced by Scholes in October 2020, but Gary Neville later admitted that it was a mistake.
Neville said: “Graham Alexander should have never left this club last season. I should have never made that decision that I made.”
The former defender also managed Fleetwood Town and Scunthorpe United after hanging up his boots.
During his playing career, Alexander played for Scunthorpe, Luton, Preston North End and Burnley.
The 52-year-old made 33 Premier League appearances in total.
