Probably not. Amazon has intentionally crippled external replication in MySQL for years now.
It's a form of vendor lock-in and you shouldn't support it.
Without replication it's impossible to migrate out of RDS without taking downtime (I've been through this and it was painful).

- zwily 13y agoThis isn't true anymore. RDS now exposes an external replication stream for Mysql. AWS actually doesn't seem to be that interested in vendor lock-in. They usually build what people ask for.
