yes. But it's outside of security and a long walk to the gates. And from my experience 18 months ago, other than some funky sofas and chairs, it's not worth the walk.

There is a new *A lounge being built in terminal J. Its on the second floor, right above the US and UA gates. I have no idea on the ETA for when it will be opening, but when i travelled through MIA in august the US agent said "soon"

The only option would be the Delta Skyclub (which is brand new)- if you were flying through MIA frequently I do believe you could buy a membership which is valid as long as you have a boarding pass (at this time not required DL/ST/etc- repeat at this time).
The Club America J is the worst lounge (contract or non contract) at MIA by far and is outside of security to boot.

CO will bring PC lounge to FLL when they join in November. UA has basically moved out of Florida except for MCO.

Club America lounge isn't too nice... The F part is identical to the J part... 
I'm not sure if AC gives access (was flying LH F), but you do need to have an invite.

My understanding is that "soon" has turned into "on hold indefinitely"...
