Yes and no.

bandwidth management on Linux is done using tc (traffic control) - part
of ip route2.

Ther are however modules of P-O-M (netfilter) that can route traffic via
different interfaces according to netfilter rules. Sort of poor mans
load balancing.

Have a look at tc and the queuing disciplines (HTB, TBF, SFQ, CBQ, etc).
