Is it a fielder's choice if the batted ball hits the advancing runner which results in the batter getting 1st base on the dead ball?

Just to be clear the runner that got hit is out. As for the batter, it would be scorers discretion. If the scorekeeper believes he would have made it on base anyways ( perhaps the ball was hit to the gap or he was within feet of the base by the time the player would have gotten to the ball) then it could be scored as an infield hit

Anytime the batter is put out at 1st base on a batted ball it is not considered a fielders choice, it is simply a put out. Now in your scenario if the catcher would have thrown home and the runner coming from 3rd is out and the batter is safe at 1st, then in that case it would be a fielders choice
