Fully automated, no. The closest possible approach to that would be a script
that took your branch point locations and branch names as arguments.
In that script, you should be able to turn your local branches into
patch sequences using git-format-patch, call git branch to create new
local branches in a clone of the conversion, and then apply the
sequences.
(I'm pretty sure there's also a way to do this using the obscure "git bundle"
feature, but I've never learned it in detail.)
