Sort of. About two years ago Apple Music had most of DT's albums in Atmos. Then, a few months later, they were pulled, and reverted back to stereo. Only proof I have are these threads: https://www.dreamtheaterforums.org/boards/index.php?topic=57760.0 andDream Theater latest now appears to be in Atmos (at least all the tracks released so far). It’s a first for DT.

I don’t recall the mixes being of Steve Wilson quality but I’d agree that possibly they were upmixes, seemed to be a more subdued Atmos experience.Perhaps they were algorithmic upmixes, and were thus deleted by Apple or pulled by the label in response to Apple's guidelines?
Hopefully a better batch of Atmos mixes will make their way back onto AM.There are some broken remnants of DT albums left in Atmos on TIDAL. I think Scenes from a Memory is complete and from a bunch of other albums, only some songs are left. I listened to them a while ago, they sounded abysmal. I'm sticking to the fan-made 5.1 mixes from the multitracks.
Likewise!I was extremely excited when those DT albums popped up in Atmos years ago but unfortunately this was the dark old days of Apple Atmos music and aweful upmixes.
