I don't think that AC operates any direct flights to Athens, but since the lounges are located before the security check (still need a boarding pass to access the area), it is quite easy to visit and then head to the other side of the airport, in case the flight is direct. Just allow about 10-15 extra minutes.

I do it all the time in summer, when US has direct flights!!
