I don't think so ... Take a look the socket ... it's not even std bulb socket then the bulb opening etc...
On the other hand like on LCI w/ Xenon they use standard H8 bulb for the AE so many people fit it w/ HID.
That's the main reason I went and upgrade my pre-LCI Halogen to a Bi-Xenon LCI.

Not sure if there is space for a HID bulb. If you can find a short HID bulb then it is possible to use a relay kit like Brabus uses on his LCI H8 kits.
