ALA will scrape for thumbs but I have never had a successful scrape for the fanart (at least not in the console scraping, rom scraping works fine). I have had to search for my own fanart but then I can set the fanart in the ALA dialog menu.
I'm guessing that this wouldn't be too difficult if the fanart had a specific name/file extension. I would suggest maybe naming the image exactly as it shows at gamefaqs.com and then add an _fanart (which is what ALA does).
Examples of file names (for the emulators I have, obviously there are tons more. I would assume that these are the major ones though.):
