Nop! Not a single bit!
I doesn't fit the pronunciation rules of most latinamerican countries, not even Brazil. I mean, How do you "say" that? what sound does the X represents? It's like "LatinEx"? That sounds so silly! Like a Kingdom Hearts Villain or something.
If you want to be inclusive / non-binary, you better use "Latine" (La-ti-ne). That's how the "inclusive language" works here.
Although, I argue that "Latino" is OK either way, since you're talking about the collective from "LATINO-America".

thank you. i'm not latino, but it always struck me as WTF when all of a sudden "let me be offended for you" people decided they needed to "fix" an entire language's "sexist" word that none of its speakers were ever offended by

Are there still more than like 5 people trying to make Latinx a thing? I thought that one kind of died out early on, but I'm not a member of that community.
