I think you could ask an LLM if they were persuaded, but I don't think you'd get meaningful data from it
Leaving aside the bots that are trained to answer "as an LLM I do not have opinions..." it's going to be a very basic probabilistic yes or no based on tone and numbers of pros and cons rather than knowledge of the surrounding political context and higher order reasoning about the accuracy of the claimed pros and cons.

Yeah the bot has both no initial position and no internal opinion on fact that an argument could operate on. It might write you a cogent response but it's fundamentally not a question an LLM can meaningfully answer.
