Not that I’m aware of, most of your Puppet is likely to be package/file/service pattern[1] modules combined with some Hieradata though. So you’re already half way there. You have your desired state already codified. So mapping from Puppet → Ansible then layering in any orchestration (you may have some Puppet Bolt stuff to port, too.)

Hiera data will largely map to host/group vars.  
Puppet modules will largely map to roles.

Wrap in some testing (Inspec/Testinfra/etc.) to ensure the state as generated from Puppet is consistent with the new state generated by Ansible.
