I haven't tested this as I'm using bibtex for my own work.  But with
citeproc-java you should be able to do something like:

      citeproc-java -b references.bib -s chicago-author-date -c Fowler_2010 
Kisker_2012 

To get something like (Fowler 2010; Kisker 2012).

My interpretation of the text is "if you want 'A (Y)' I will type '(Y)'
but you will have to type 'A' — manually(!)".

However, if you could combine styles you could just switch the '-s' argument
when calling citeproc-java (or a compatible tool).

Last resort you could import all references as org-bibtex entries and use
some tool to format information from this.  It's much nicer to rely on an
external tool for this, though.
