You're still not specifying if you are using federation or mirrored queues.

Mirrored queues cannot do that. Mirroring is about copying
messages to 2+ nodes.

Sharded queues is a feature that's being discussed, in the meantime,
federated queues in 3.2 is the closest to load balancing a single queue you can get.

Also, you can partition a message stream between queues using consistent hashing
exchange [1] and techniques such as [2].
