This is for an installation with a disconnect that requires copper supply conductor, On line side of disconnect can you use aluminum & load side use copper to satisfy the copper supply conductors for termination in unit

Not sure I understand your question.

If the disconnect requires CU conductors only then that is what you have to use for line and load.

A more common situation is the equipment being fed from a disconnect. requires CU conductors. In that case you could feed the disconnect with AL and go out of it with CU provided the lugs are listed for both metals.
