There's no reason this can't be done.  3 approaches.  1.  Good new springs
properly made likely will not show the left side list...for a long while,
anyway.  2. you would need to take the vehicle weight and measure the
amount of  static vehicle sag at each wheel.  A good suspension engineer
could then calcualte which spring(s) to make a little taller than the
others...or stiffer if it's a lot of weight difference.  3.  Another option
is to just put spacers in to compensate this small difference...which is
what i may do (either that or nothing).
