Why try to over-complicate it? That doesn't change braking torque one little bit. It's still the same rpm, same braking torque, same current from the motor, so same power from the motor for that braking force. So what that the buck converting controller has a change in mix of the output to charge the battery. That doesn't change braking force, which is what the OP wants to do.
I already explained how to easily change the braking force quite simply, but instead let's over analyse something that won't work to accomplish the goal.
