Not really. There was an academic project around this but I've not seen signs that it will be integrated with SQLite core: https://simonwillison.net/2022/Sep/1/sqlite-duckdb-paper/

The key thing to consider here is trade-offs.

Analytical databases tend to be optimized for analytical queries at the expense of fast atomic read-write transactions.

SQLite is mainly used in situations where fast atomic read-write transactions are key - that's why it's used in so many mobile phone applications, for example.

It's not going to grow analytical-query-at-scale capabilities if that means negatively impacting the stuff it's really good at already.
