You can install an undersink carbon filter (we can sell you the filter and housing for about $50) and that would remove the chlorine. Another alternative is the Reionator; it is a whole-house water conditioner that is WQA certified to remove chlorine, and softens or conditions the water as well. It regenerates using potassium instead of sodium, so the plants love it (better for you, too!)
I’m not sure what’s in conditioner, but I’ve never seen its use recommended for plants, either.
I keep a gallon jug of water out for the plants. Not only does this let the chlorine evaporate, but it warms the water up to room temperature too, so watering with it doesn’t shock the roots.
I’d have to say no.
