Basically it will sound less like a robot and more like an actual chorus because the beating will be less apparent but the ears will still notice a disparity across the stereo field.

If you have Max4Live (included in Live9 Suite), it should be easy enough to build a Live device that does the amplitude modulation exactly the way you want.
Otherwise, look for Ring Modulator and Amplitude Modulation VST plugins. The easy way to write a Ringmod plugin is to just do amplitude modulation. So the free plugins are likely to do what you want. ...

Three plug-ins I'm already thinking about using are
I'll use Bitcrusher (a distortion plug-in that decreases the quality of the incoming audio) to make it sound like the recording quality of a radio show
I'll use EVOC 20 TrackOscillator, a vocoder, to process the audio like a radio recording
I'll use Vinyl, a third-party plug-in that simulates the sounds ...
