Not as far as I know: I think it could be done using a neural net and training it to recognize the style of music output that you intend when you play. (The naive "output a note of the duration I play" simply does not work). But there would still be a lot of ambiguity except for very simple music, and correcting errors is enormously more expensive than inputting the correct thing first off.
