Romeo and Juliet are not in any way Petrarchan lovers. The key characteristic of Petrarch's love for Laura was that he never told her about it and she didn't return it, being married to someone else. Romeo and Juliet, on the other hand, did tell each other they loved each other, got married to each other and fully consummated their love. They are the opposite of Petrarchan lovers. Romeo was perhaps a bit like Petrarch in his Rosaline phase, although he did tell Rosaline about it, but unlike Petrarch, he stopped moping over an unattainable woman and went for an attainable one instead.
