Like the picture below?

Insert the part into a Product, and then use the Symmetry tool to make a new, left-handed part. I flipped the part around the XY plane.

The new part is copied from the original, with a link. So if the original part is changed, the flipped part will change also.

Another option: I notice that your part is symmetrical to begin with, so you really don't need to flip it. Just copy the instance in the Product, and then contrain it to rotate it into it's "symmetrical" position.
