No, this will not work as the problem is that the dash ind. bulb combines the L & R wires through the filament which, now that all 4 are LED's, conducts enough to power the unselected side. When all 4 were bulbs and took much more current that was not a factor as current would still flow to the unselected side but not enough to fire the bulbs. Yes the 2 diodes (or 1 dual diode module) is the only way to do it.
Not all flashers marked "electronic" will work correctly with LED's. Get an LED specific flasher.
