A more general question would be:

Is it possible to design a chopper stabilised null detector using modern 
components with a performance equivalent to the 845A?

Whilst the noise of most chopper stabilised opamps is much larger than 
that of the 845A, perhaps something like the approach used in:
http://cds.linear.com/docs/LT%20Magazine/LTMag-V16N01-11-FETAmp-Williams.pdf
could be used.

Since the low noise preamp is AC coupled a lower noise input using a 
single ended JFET could be substituted for the one using the LSK389.
