According to reply #17 of this tripadvisor query, it is possible to do so but you have to speak to an agent and have them deduct the fare from your T-money card.

I just finished my trip and I couldn’t use T money card for express train, so I use cash. However, recharge Tmoney card only accept cash.

The other way to purchase express train ticket by using credit card is buying from third parties. I used KKday which is cheaper than counter. You just need to be aware of that you only can exchange the ticket of the day if you buy a coupon on KKday

According to http://english.visitkorea.or.kr/enu/TRP/TP_ENG_2_1.jsp (updated recently):

  • Express train ticket can be purchased by credit card or cash (but not T-Money);
  • All stop train ticket can be "purchased" by cash or T-money (but not credit card)

I just arrived in Seoul and found out that no, you cannot use T-money for express AREX train from Incheon airport to Seoul station, where as you can use T-money for local AREX train from ICN to Seoul. So we had to take the local AREX train from Incheon airport to Seoul station. Same route, except local AREX train stops at every stop and takes roughly 1 hour 20 minutes vs 45 minutes for express AREX train.
