Is it possible to retrieve IQ data from Fake Backends in Qiskit?

I'm trying with the following code, but even by setting meas_level=1, I get only count vectors.

from qiskit import QuantumCircuit, execute, Aer  
from qiskit.providers.fake_provider import FakeAlmaden
backend_fake = FakeAlmaden()
qc = QuantumCircuit(2)

qc.h(0)

qc.cx(0, 1)

qc.measure_active()

backend = Aer.get_backend('qasm_simulator')
job = execute(qc, backend_fake, shots=10, meas_level=1, meas_return="single")

result = job.result()

I need the IQ data to test a different discriminator from the default one.

Any suggestion?
