Hi,

Yes it is possible, you have to use the API from AE.
you can find it in the API help from AutoCAD Electrical, below is is a part of
the help:
Normally I'm using this 
(c:ace_multipole (list "VMS21_WithBlock" "VMS21P"
"VMS21P" ) 3 nil 1)


Syntax
(c:ace_multipole  symname  polecnt  options)


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------


Parameters
symname 
Symbol to insert.


polecnt 
Total pole count (nil, 1, 2 =2 pole). 2 pole is minimum inserted.


options 



bit 1 set means suppress edit dlg after insert (edits first component inserted)

bit 2 set means force default to start with "H" symbol orientation
(horiz wire insert) 
bit 4 set means force default to start with "V" symbol orientation
(vertical wire insert) 
bit 2+4 blank = no forced default 
bit 8 set means force build vertical wire insertion to the LEFT or horizontal
wire insertion UP 
bit 16 set means force build vertical wire insertion to the RIGHT or horizontal
wire insertion DOWN 
bit 8+16 blank means prompt user for direction.
