Yes, you will be able to install the Thule AirScreen Fairing # TH82WV on the Thule 58 inch Square load bars (assuming you have the recommended bar length for your 2019 VW Atlas) and also mount a Thule Rooftop Cargo Box, like the Thule Motion XT XL # TH629806 or the Thule Force XT XL # TH6358B on the same bars.
You may need to slide the Airscreen farther to the right or left (see photo) in order to allow for the quick mount clamps to attach to the bar without interfering with the fairing clips. That just means you may not end up with it perfectly centered on the roof, but it will still make a big difference in terms of reducing wind noise and drag.
