No. ath9k is only for 802.11n hardware not for 802.11ac

And there is not any device that runs stable and reliable with 802.11ac and
ath10k driver. I have asked this question periodically every few weeks on
#openwrt irc and gotten same answer so far - "no" :(

I guess there are too little developers working on it, and hiring
high-skilled developers is quite expensive... so not sure when and how or
if ever we will get and decent 802.11ac support in OpenWrt... :(
