Yes, alignFromLeft: works perfectly with groups.
Check this:

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
rootClasses := { RTShape . RTLayout . RTBuilder }.

groups := rootClasses collect: [ :cls |
g := RTGroup new.
elements := (RTEllipse new size: 8; color: Color blue) elementsOn: cls withAllSubclasses.
g addAll: elements.
edges := RTEdgeBuilder new
view: g;
objects: cls withAllSubclasses from: #superclass.
RTForceBasedLayout on: elements edges: edges.
g
].

v := RTView new.
groups do: [ :aGroup | v addAll: aGroup ].
RTVerticalLineLayout on: groups.

TRConstraint alignFromLeft: groups.
v
