Vocal processor harmonizer for intentional dissonance

I have next to nil experience with vocal harmonizers. Is it possible to achieve intentional dissonance with either hardware or plug-ins? Every walkthrough I've seen has been harmonizing within the key. Is it possible, using a midi input, to play a half step removed (or, depending on the midi keyboard/mapping, +/- >100 cents) from a vocal line?

I'm thinking of The Great Comet of 1812, specifically parts like 1:28 of "Natasha & Bolkonskys"
