No, AD groups and members are stored in AD, so SharePoint CSOM code is unable to enumerate those.

You need to query AD for these details e.g., like described here.

Using server side, you could utilize SP API for this, like described here.

Because SharePoint synchronizes certain user properties from AD to SharePoint User Profile Service, and you can query these user profile properties using CSOM.
