No, based on the fact you know nothing about your opponents

The first raise is reason enough to fold.

You haven't given any details about your opposition or said whether your hand was suited but, assuming average players, I'd usually fold AJos to an early raise but re-raise with AJs. And, as you did, you've got to fold either hand to the re-raise as it's far too likely you're up against at least one good pair (TT-AA) and/or AK-AQ.
