I'm not an expert on this but I don't think so. It's only for completed handheld lasers.
Just don't advertise "laser" all over the package and you should be fine ;)

correct, the restriction is against laser 'pointers' only. You can import complete lab lasers and modules, but nothing that is portable and ready to use out of the box.

All non-pointer lasers are legal to own and import in Aus :)

However, as soon as you build that diode into a host with inboard batteries, it becomes a firearm.

WA is a bit different, they do have laws regarding modules and shows, so make sure to look into that if you live in WA.
