That's even in the UT, but nothing implies that Aragorn had power in the Wraith-world. I believe it was only because of Aragorn's "natural" strength, leadership and other qualities why the Rangers sent for him. The encounter at Bruinen also does not prove anything about this matter - Frodo sees Glorfindel as the shining figure in the wraith-world, but no trace of Aragorn.
