Can I publish AAR file is included another AAR file in /libs folder?

I have been developing two applications, A and B. And they used “shared” library published on Maven repository.

Inside “shared” library project, there is some external library likes “/libs/C.aar”.
And then connect dependency like this.

    dependencies {
            implementation fileTree(dir: 'libs', include: ['*.aar'])
    }

For using “shared” library in both applications, I published to Maven repository. And add dependency, rebuild project. But there is no aar file inside “shared” library.

Can I publish AAR file is included another AAR file in /libs folder?
