But it also says "Note: This bit can be set/reset in debug mode
(exception)."

The MX31 manual says in 37.5.3.1:

"The Watchdog Control Register (WCR) field WT[7:0] must have a time-out
value written to it before the Watchdog can be enabled. The WDOG is
enabled by setting the Watchdog Enable (WDE) bit in the WCR."

I seem to recall that on some imx that two-folded write was indeed
necessary.

I'd say better safe than sorry and keep things as they are?
