Should I give my work a heads up before I have even started to apply to other jobs?

I know, I know- "Never leave a job without another in play", "HR is not your friend" but hear me out.

I've been with this place for 6+ years. Started as reception, was moved to a sort of member manager type title within 3 years. I've been doing THAT for another 3 years. It's a small company of 7 people, and no one is cross-trained except me. This means I can't even leave for vacation without a scramble, and even then they don't do my job they just defer people until I get back.

There were no manuals until I started working there. I have made countless manuals and even training videos (experience from past job) that no one reads. It's literally out of sight, out of mind.

I am planning to move several states away and I know they will not give me a remote option. I have a company in mind that several friends work at and love, and are ready to write me glowing recommendations. I just feel very icky after all the good that I have received from the company(generous pay, benefits, time off, sick time, overtime, work freedoms, etc.) to just leave them with two weeks. Even if they promoted the receptionist, which they likely will, there's no way that everything I do can be taught even just the basics- within 2 weeks. The only people to be affected would be the few people that I actually appreciate and have done so much for me.

I was thinking of speaking to my semi-boss, who sorta is HR- there is no real HR, and just being very honest that I am planning to go, but want to give them the opportunity to start training immediately before I apply anywhere. I might get the full two weeks, I might get more, I might be hired right away, who knows? It is not about money- I cannot afford any good living situation, I hate the city, I hate half my coworkers now, and my job has devolved into fending off crazy boss ideas, and getting argued with on every phone call by clients. I can't take it anymore.

I know that its smartest to get a job securely before leaving one. I know you can't trust HR. If she were a real HR person, I'd worry, but she has honestly been more of a adopted mother during all my time here. She made sure I got good raises, she gave me good advice when I was butting heads with my coworkers, and I've been to her house and played with her horses.

For the record I manage their website, onboard and manage their members, process complaints and set up hearings, and cover for two other jobs when those people leave. I hold three titles.

My worry is either I will tip them off, and get let go in 2 weeks regardless, and have to scramble (I highly doubt they'd do it but you never know) or the other place hires me so fast I leave them with no information, all of it tucked into my head. I wrote them manuals but they NEVER seem to remember or know where they are, and I gave up on them after one year. Nothing is in date.

TLDR: Is it a terrible idea to tip off my employer that I intend to begin applying elsewhere, with the goal of giving them extra time to hire/and or train a replacement for me, AND possibly hire/train a new receptionist if she replaces me?
