I'd like to ask whether the Aurelia JS framework can be used as replacement for i.e. Ionic in hybrid app development. I have seen some tries, how to integrate with Cordova, but from their pages it is not really clear how it should be done.

There is also Framework7 (https://framework7.io/) which is agnostic to which JS framework you use. You can find a small example here: http://www.jujens.eu/posts/en/2016/Mar/15/ionic2-aurelia-f7/ which also compares what would be like writing the same app with Ionic2 vs Aurelia + Framework7. I hope it helps.

You can just use Aurelia on Cordova as you would in a regular browser. That's basically what your linked article tries to tell. Get started with Aurelia and host it in Cordova. But this does not solve what you might expect as a replacement for Ionic. Basically you would have to build this layer of abstraction yourself or use another UI framework that suits your needs.
@EisenbergEffect talked in comments about the "secret" project named Aurelia Interface that will probably be the replacement (Aurelia + Cordova) for Ionic (Angular + Cordova). But currently not too much is available in the wild about this.
