No, SQL Server is not Load Balance aware. Even with clustering does not
provide Load Balancing.
You could have load balance your web servers, and have individual web
servers accessing different dedicated SQL Servers.
SQL Server 2005 does provide Peer to Peer replication which will keep a
group of SQL Servers aggregated for scale out read and write performance in
sync. But it does not provide load balancing, but a piece of the
functionality required by it.
