I'm gonna go ahead and say nope.

SRX supports reth with active/passive nodes.
It doesn't support a lag that uses both nodes active/active as part of the same ae.

You can build a reth with multiple ports that uses LACP to build a lag on each node however.

I recommend not using AE at all on SRX. It will bring you pain. Just build them as reth. You can configure LACP on the reth to bundle the links.
