Can Aws Application LB replace apache proxy server for reverse tunnel over HTTPS?

current I have an IoT infrastructure composed from Cloud part:

and customer part:

where there are implemented several services and one of them is reverse tunnel to allow Remote desktop on the Agent over HTTPS. The only port allowed for the communication between Agent and backend is HTTPS 443.

The reverse tunnel is made by SSH command through SSH server over HTTPS by using CONNECT method. Apache Proxy plays a fundamental role for reverse tunnel because the request HTTPS end on that and by CONNECT method the request ssh session goes through the SSH server.

mod_proxy_CONNECT

enter image description here

I want to take this architecture in AWS Cloud and my question is:

Can AWS Application Load Balancer replace Apache proxy to maintain the same reverse tunnel feature as now ?
