Other than reading it and retyping, no. It's like trying to make eggs
from omelets. Not to say it won't ever be possible. Think OCR.
In theory that's already possible.
There are programs that translate scanned scores to a music format (e.g.
Finale or Sibelius). Some of these programs can then export to musicXML
which can then be converted to .ly.
But that's quite cumbersome - and you're not very likely to get useable
results.
So most of the time retyping will be faster and better.
