Not normal

Doesn't seem normal to me. Do you have any signs of a small oil leak? Could oil have dripped on the belt or one of the pulleys and be causing the belt to slip and squeal slightly?

Only leak i had was oil filter housing gasket, and after that all my belts and pulleys including tensioner were replaced , noise only happens mostly when i drive aggressively i would say in sport mode, could be an oil leak i will look for that today .

I would have someone rev the car while i listen under the hood, under the car, and behind exhaust. Doesn't sound like 'squeal' to me but more like air escaping.
