According to the terms and conditions, no. American Express states in its terms and conditions that the purchase of gift cards at eligible restaurants does not qualify for the annual meal credit.
However, if you ever think you won’t be able to use your annual meal credit during the year, you can always try to buy a gift card at an eligible restaurant. You may get the $200 credit on your account. You can then use the restaurant gift card whenever you like.
