No, it works the other way around, the JSON is generated from the SLD. If you want to style in JSON directly there's the MBStyle module, but careful, it's an incomplete implementation, it's hardwired to work with 3857 zoom levels, and a community module (hence unsupported and only available in nightly builds):
https://docs.geoserver.org/stable/en/user/styling/mbstyle/index.html That said, it's there, it's open, so anyone with java dev skills and some styling knowledge can jump in an start improving it, and maybe even support it.
