To me knowledge, no.

Well, IMHO, the path forward would be to create a system configuration
file based; give a look to gnu/system/examples in Guix source for
inspiration. :-)

Then test that configuration from Ubuntu by generating VM.  Once you are
more or less happy with your config.scm, then you can run it on
bare-metal.

Here, you have an incremental path with a simple feedback loop in the
comfort of your current environment that already works. :-)
