You wouldn't want to run active active with two units in a pair and have either unit run at over 50% capacity. Doing so, you'd lose your redundancy as one unit couldn't handle the full traffic load. v11's ScaleN clustering becomes really useful for taking advantage of more capacity of the units when you have more than two units in the cluster as you can run Active-Active-Standby and increase your use of the units to 66% instead of 50% for an Active-Standby pair.
You can talk with your F5 SE or partner to get eval keys for v11 which include all modules. I'd also have a chat with them about whether v11 clustering would work well for your scenario.
