Is it possible to view the materials assigned to all parts in an assembly?
 
You can create a variable in the part property, and run a script that assigns PartBody's material name to it...
Need to consider though what to do if you have a multiple material part... say different mtrls on different bodies.
Once that is done, you could add that info to the BOM analysis...

I already have the material assigned to each part, but that is a parameter that does not get shown in the BOM analysis.
 
Right. BOM analysis shows only those parameters, that are on part-level. You could write a script that takes that material name, and assigns it to new/created parameter on part level.
