So, alt+arrows = select next\previous component. Can we select one in another (perpendicular) direction with a shortcut? (from parallel edge loop for example)

Oh i didnt know that,

Here i was able to find 8 shortcuts with sibling keyword, most are to select ranges.

All of these seem to be based on the IDs of the compnents, so they follow only one direction (vertexes and polys)
And when a loop ends it jumps in the next one.
Edges on the other hand acting quite random with these shortcuts.
So i dont think is possible to go perpendicualar.

Unless you want a script that works only for grids or something.
