AWS RDS multi master writes in multiple regions

Is it possible to have something similar to DynamoDB global tables in AWS RDS?

I know that with Aurora we can have multiple read-replicas in different regions and two active masters in the same region but does AWS offer the possibility for a relational database to have two active masters to write to in two different regions?

No, that's not supported.

Latency also makes this very difficult to achieve since you need to guarantee strong consistency, which is not the case with DynamoDB and its last-writer-wins model.
