AWS offers that with placement groups for EC2 [1].

It's also probably worth mentioning the Dedicated Hosts [2] and Dedicated Instances [3] features of EC2 in this context which allow you to ensure that EC2 instances run on the same physical hardware.

Dedicated hosts and instances are super expensive especially compared to Hetzner.
