There is an easier way: Everybody can die!
Edit: I changed the solution a little bit to clarify that there is no need to lose internet connection if the host didn't die during the match. Guest players can just quit to main menu and return with different class.
The trick is: if the host dies, he can disconnect the internet cable before wave 49 ends and the game will choose another player to be the host. Note that it won't work by closing the game or quitting to main menu. Host needs to lose internet connection!
Then he can come back to the match with another class. If other players (not the host) died during the speedrun, they can just quit to main menu and come back with another class.
EDIT 1:
- All players need to die (wipe) to make the trick work. Credits to D3LTA, Davis 888 and count023.
- Other comment suggests that if only the host dies during the process, it's ok to disconnect only him. He needs to remember to change his class while he is returning to the match! Credits to cooorpse.
- The team can quit during the final wave (50 or 25 if it is a horde variant). Credits to Davis 888 and Bastian Reader.
Example - when everybody died:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***- game paused; all players (except the host) quit to main menu and come back with a different class (wave 48);
- if it is the last two waves, I recommend that some players come back as Scout using all health bonus (assuming they weren't Scout when they died). Also keep one player with Team Revive skill at the fabricator, maybe the best choice is the sniper with Radar Ping and Called Shot to help Soldier before he uses the Hammer of Dawn;
- wave completed;
- game paused; first host loses internet connection;
- another host will be picked by the game;
- first host comes back to the match using another class (wave 49 for example);
- all deaths will be cleared; wave(s) completed; achievement unlocked!
Note: if Snatcher catchs someone, don't use Team Revive as it will count as one death! Just shoot/kill the Snatcher until he releases the player.
This is how my friends discovery the trick:
*** Spoiler - click to reveal ***- Host (Soldier) lost his internet connection and dropped from the match;
- All other 4 players died (team wiped); wave failed;
- Other host was picked; Soldier re-entered the match;
- Everybody managed to unlock the achievement after quitting and coming as Soldiers. Check below for more details:
- It can be stacked with "Do You Even Lift?" -

"The Perfect Run" original solution which has helped many others players
I made these two pictures to explain how Lift Speedrun works. You can use it for all three new Horde achievements to avoid more than one spawn area; of course, for "You're the support, son" achievement you will need to use your own weapons because you can't buy anything from the Fabricator.
