Eliminating assymetrics effects in Jets

If you have a twin engine jet with the exhaust nozzles constructed in a way that the exhaust came out of a single nozzle ,
1. will that eliminated the assymetric turning effect if one engine fails?
2. will there be a signifiant loss of thrust as a result of rerouting the exhaust gases?
Rerouting the exhaust is nothing new its done in thrustvectoring jet fighters (Harrier, JSF, SU-35, etc).
