Unfortunately I cannot understand what you wrote.
If you mean a case such like this, then you got wrong ML.
- /tmp is ext2
- you have two dirs under /tmp, br1 and br2.
- mount -t aufs -o br:/tmp/br1:/tmp/br2 none /au
- export /tmp. (is this what you want to do?)
- probably yes you can. but it is up to your filesystem of /tmp. in this
  sample, ext2.

Umm, still I cannot understand what you desire...
What is "branched file"?
What did you export and mount? What do you want to see?
