Recent versions - no. But IBM ported older versions of AIX to pretty much any workstation platform they ever made - it ran on the RT and there was a version for some PS/2s, probably others too. Since Monterey seems to be pretty much dead I think it's unlikely that AIX will run on anything un-PowerPCish in the near future - no idea how long they will support POWER1 and POWER2, but at least 5.1 still supports them. The newer POWER processors all use the PowerPC instruction set.
have fun
