Nope.

You'll need something with a multi gig port on the WAN and LAN side to see 2Gb accross the wire.

Only NG that does that is the Orbi 960 series. 

NGs RS700 supports this as well coming out at the end of the month I think. 

This was annouced as well but it doesn't have multi gig LAN ports:

Or find you a modem that has dual WAN Ports that supports LAG.
