Negative - PT always makes separate left and right files for any stereo tracks.
Record your mix to a stereo track, then make all of your other tracks inactive and bounce-to-disk your raw stereo track, with the addition of a dither on it, with the bounce settings as 44.1KHz, 16-bit (tweakhead setting).
I have never noticed a "night and day" difference between bounce-to-disk and record-to-disk, but even if there is a difference, doing it this way Pro Tools doesn't have to worry about plugins, VI's, etc when it is doing the bounce. Just dither and sample rate.
