Hi, Mohamed. Aluminum cannot be plated out of an aqueous bath, and I doubt that it is possible to plate a nickel-aluminum alloy either. You could perhaps occlude some fines of aluminum into your nickel plating though.

NiAl has been co-deposited from Ionic Liquids by a number of different authors although its not an industrial process. Look up W.R.Pitner for his work on [EMIM]AlCl3-
