I'd like to know if its possible to achieve the line on the right hand side without expanding the path or masking like shown. So i'd like to keep the line a live path, but keep the top and bottom flat like shown.

Someone may prove me wrong, but I don't think there's a way to get what you describe. There are certain immutable properties of a stroked path, and constraint to the 3 available cap styles is one of them.
