Not really.
AWS uses the URL redirection to do this, which means that the user will see, in the address field of the web browser, that there are some tricks in there. This can influence the "user experience" or even have some serious impact on the SSL deployment strategy (certificates!).
What nginx can do is a lot better. Just for an example: go to http://www.inspirel.com and you will be served by the AWS server that is not even running on the standard 80 port. But you will not see it and this is exactly the kind of user experience that is expected. AWS alone does not support this level of transparency and flexibility.
