Nope. Read this link:

Aeroplan Elite members:
Elite members with a valid membership card and a same-day confirmed ticket on an Air Canada, Air Canada Jazz, Star Alliance or Air Canada Codeshare flight are entitled to access the Maple Leaf Lounge.
Guest Policy:
Immediate family: complimentary
1 complimentary guest
Guests, $10/per person before 11:00 a.m.
Guests, $20/per person after 11:00 a.m.
Perhaps you read this wrong... the line below "immediate family: complimentary" is not talking about immediate family anymore, but truly one free non-family guest. So if you are traveling with one business buddy, your spouse, and nine of your children, they can all get in for free with you, as an Elite (which shows that you are on your profile).
