In a word - No. An intercepting proxy and proxy authentication
are mutually exclusive.  Why would a browser that believes that
it is talking to a web server send proxy authentication?

It just isn't possible, sorry.

I'd suggest that you use a .pac file to configure your browser(s)
if you have a large number of them, otherwise you would need to
configure the proxy in manually.  Either way, you'll have to modify
squid.conf to force authentication.
