I am going to disagree a bit. Even after swabbing, many clarinets retain extra moisture in the tenon sockets. This can be bad for the wood in those areas. While you can leave the clarinet together between practice sessions, I would ad least disassemble it to make sure the sockets are fully dried out before putting it back together. Use a different cloth for this purpose, or use kleenex or paper towels, to keep any extra cork grease from coming off on your clarinet swab.
