Not exactly. Almost the reverse, instead of depositing metal the voltage is reversed so that it tries to react with and disolve the surface, but since the compound is insoluble it just builds up.

It's such a pity that Al is so reactive, then you could plate the Copper with it and then anodize that. ;']
