Actually, Joon, we can't use lively in this way. Lively is actually an adjective that means the same as energetic. (Friendly is another adjective that ends with "ly") In this case, we use the word "live" to describe the action of the war.
This might be the first time I've ever watched a real live war on TV.
or
This might be the first time I've watched a real war live on TV.
"In my life " is not necessary, because that is what the construction "I have ever" already tells us.
