Nope, and it's the designated hardest co-op fight in the game + can truecombo not!oneshot you through max ice res. Ancient Leshen takes the cake solo because the bastard has far more oneshots which are far harder to evade, the "small monster packs" mechanic can quickly overwhelm you with annoyingly tanky Jagras and IIRC actually has more health than everything except Safi and Kulve. But while Leshen can be played around since it doesn't scale with multiplayer (like the good old days with the Town quests scaled for multiplayer), and can even be ledgescummed in one of it's warp positions in the central area, ATVelk is just a consistent threat no matter what way you try to get around it.
Best bet I've found is grinding out a high-end Fire element Safi weapon, and bring boosters (Health, Affinity too if you're going full risk) rather than blankies if you're confident enough with Velkhana's moveset that it's the randoms that you're more worried about. Partbreaker sounds like it would help, but ATVelk can re-apply the ice so often that it evens out to being not-bad-but-not-a-mandatory-hardcounter. Also, make sure you bring full ice res, because even if Velkhana can still oneshot you, it gives you more breathing room on the chip damage regardless. On one hand randos do make the fight easier due to aggro + slightly lower health scaling, on the other it only takes one retard to triplecart.
Also if you're pre-Ala, you have yet to learn the true propane of randoms carting to their own stupidity.
