My Pi is running headless, so I can't test this, but first have a look at this page. Then try if you can set the keymap from a terminal:

setxkbmap fr

This should switch to french azerty layout. You can put this command into your ~/.xinitrc if it works. There are also many other keyboard layouts available (like be for Belgian azerty).

Edit: If you want to make this permanent, you need to make sure the ~/.xinitrc still starts the default WM and desktop. So put these lines into your ~/.xinitrc, if it does not exist yet:

setxkbmap fr
. /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc

This will run the default xinit script after setting up the keyboard layout.
