Default Dual to AllPass.?

Does there exist a dual to an AllPass, that is, a structure in which
amplitude varies with frequency, but phase does not?

Wouldn't it be nice. No, in general that violates causality. (I'll be
a bit less dogmatic about that than previously, since we talked about
this several months back.)

A symmetric FIR filter centered around t=0 might qualify, if you don't
need it to be real-time.
