Quartus Support for Post Route Simulations

If you mean a post-fit timing analysis, then yes, but I presume you are referring to a true gate-level simulation. This was possible in the past, but newer larger devices have made it such that it's usually impractical to do this (hours or days to run the sim), so gate-level simulation models are not provided. The combination of a functional simulation and timing analysis is usually considered sufficient for verification.
