Nope, unless you build the converter yourself and reprogram the outputs using pwm. Technically possible, but since nobody did it so far, chances are that it did not really work out in the end.

Not exactly what you are looking for, but maybe it helps. I build one of these myself:

I‘m using Atari 2600 paddles with a 2-phase spinner.
