Unfortunately, I don't think there is. You can center and right-align
lines, but that's it as far as I know.
Alignment's stored in the font object...
>> layout [a: area center middle]

make object! [
name: "CGTriumvirate"
style: none
size: 12
color: 0.0.0
offset: 2x2
space: 0x0
align: 'center
valign: 'middle
shadow: none
colors: none
]
and the space word there changes the spacing between letters, so that
could possibly be used to give justification. I'd think you'd need
two faces for each line of your text though, which would be possible,
just not easy.
