Not ATMOS. But There’s the Blu-ray Audio version with 5.1 - 24/96 Hi-Rez audio. From Amazon US:

Description​

THE SONG REMAINS THE SAME is the soundtrack to the legendary concert film of the same name, which was released in 1976. The performances in the film were recorded July 27-29, 1973 at Madison Square Garden during the band’s tour for its then-current studio album, Houses Of The Holy.The packaging for all of the reissue formats will be the most exquisite and elaborate in the Led Zeppelin reissue series, echoing the intricate embossing of the albums original issue. -This format represents the album’s debut in hi-res 5.1 surround sound on Blu-ray audio. It features 96kHz/24 bit 5.1 (DTS-HD Master Audio Surround) and stereo mixes (PCM Stereo and DTS-HD Master Audio Stereo). It also includes video performances of four songs not in the original film: “Celebration Day,” “Over The Hills And Far Away,” “Misty Mountain Hop,” and “The Ocean.” (All with 5.1 audio).

I bought mine a lot lower than $45. More like $25, more or less.

I saw “Becoming Led Zeppelin” at an iMax theater near Chicago last night. Very nice coverage of their early years with lots of live and studio footage most people have never seen. The sound was mostly front-centric. At one point, however, there was discussion about the middle freakout section of “Whole Lotta Love”. At that point, the sounds were spinning around the room in full-blown ATMOS. Very impressive! Shortly afterwards, the song was played from start to finish but unfortunately absent of any surround activity. Worth seeing, but don’t expect newly mixed ATMOS throughout.

yep spot on
a great documentary with very little surround action, minus the moment you bring up

I didn't think it would be such a proper documentary. Considering the raw energy and pandemonium surrounding this band, I felt this doc was rather subdued.

Whole Lotta Love was well presented, shame all of the musical content couldn't have utilized the 9.1.6 theatre Atmos surround.

Didn't expect the film to end the way it did - should we expect a follow-up 'Being Led Zeppelin'?
