You can do this using the player's conctext menu (right click on the char on pc) or by making a search first and clicking on their name.

This is only possible if you can see the player on your screen. What if they are across the world? I would like to ability to invite by right clicking their name in chat.

Social Lists > Player Search > Put in search parameters and click 'Execute' > Right click on name > Choose from several invite options

They do not need to be on your friend list or standing anywhere near you.

I know this is a few days old but I am already able to right-click on a player's name in the chat log to invite them. Looking at your previous posts, I am also able to invite directly from LS or FC by right clicking their name on the list (or square button on gamepad).
