The roots of Aeonium rubrolineatum did not contain arbuscles or vesicles and the occurrence of a mycorrhizal associate could not be demonstrated in this species.
While the protocol utilized for preserving and staining roots of Aeonium was adequate for this study, it soon became apparent that a more refined technique would be useful for future studies.
The protocol described by Koske and Gemma (1989) that utilizes roots fixed in 50% ethanol and stained with 0.05% trypan blue to observe and quantify the presence and abundance of VAM fungi is recommended for future studies.

I have an Aeonium that I have wintered over under lights.
You don't say which aeonium you have, but I think they're all quite stunning.
I've found a couple of excellent web sites that describe the many ways in which succulents can be propagated and it would indicate that you have a few choices.
